What type of the new Zealand kiwi is the most endangered?

Possibly the Kakapo, a ground-dwelling nocturnal parrot.OR perhaps the Tuatara, Sphenodon spp., dating from about 70 M years ago, a true descendant of the early Dinosaurs. They live to perhaps 150 years, and can be very slow moving. [A friend of mine visited an exhibit of Tuatara in UK, which he studied for 15 min or so. He marvelled at the remarkably realistic reproduction and life-like pose; - - but then the Tuatara blinked!]OR perhaps the Kiwi, a flightless nocturnal bird that lives in deep burrows under the tree roots. Its nostrils are at the ed of its long beak!All are endangered.
