There has not been enough research done into the lifespan of the kakapo, as so few of these birds are left, and the remaining specimens must be kept in secure, protected areas. The lifespan is believed to be around 90 years, but there is no definitive figure available.

What type of area does a kakapo live in Stewart Island in New Zealand?

Kakapo are no longer believed to live on Stewart Island since feral cats wiped out the population there. Because of predation by cats, dogs, stoats and rats on the mainland, all remaining kakapo have been moved to offshore islands. It is possible that there are still some remaining kakapo on far-flung sections of the island. If this is the case, they will only be found in the dense rainforest and scrubland on the island.
