Yes, it is! The kiwi is a flightless bird from the genus Apteryx. It is also the name of a fruit.
Until 1995, three species of kiwis were recognized by scientists, but after genetic research, five species are now admitted :
- Common kiwi, also called tokoeka (Apteryx australis)
- Brown kiwi (Apteryx mantelli)
- Kiwi d'Okarito (Apteryx rowi)
- Little spotted kiwi (Apteryx owenii)
- Great spotted kiwi (Apteryx haastii)
Kiwis live in New Zealand. Most are vulnerable according to IUCN's Red List, and Apteryx mantelli is endangered.
