Here are some factors that contribute to the vulnerability of the kakapo (often called the night parrot or owl parrot):The kakapo is flightless, so it is hard for it to get away from certain predators.The kakapo sleeps during the day and forages at night, which unfortunately is when a lot of predators are hunting.The kakapo has one of the lowest reproduction rates among birds.Before the introduction of non-native species, the kakapos did really well, but they are developed to be safe from predators like eagles. When dogs and other types of mammals were introduced, their numbers plummeted quickly.

How can a kakapo use its camouflage to survive in its environment?
Animals use camouflage to either help them hide from predators, or to help them sneak up on prey unexpectedly. In the case of the kakapo, being a flightless, nocturnal parrot with very few ways to defend itself, it needs to remain hidden from predators. The kakapo's feathers are mottled green and yellow, which have similar colouring to leaves in the kakapo's habitat and allow the kakapo to blend in with its environment. When a kakapo senses a predator, its first instinct is to freeze. This, coupled with the bird's green colouring, renders it almost invisible to many predators, especially humans, who used to hunt the kakapo for food.

Kakapo was created in 1845.
