Best Answer

All birds have wings. It's just that some of them are useless for flight.

The New Zealand kiwi certainly has wings, though it appears to have none. The wings are small and rudimentary, hidden under the kiwis' hairy feathers, but certainly present.

The kiwi is a member of the ratite family, a family of birds characterised for being flightless.
