The kakapo is a flightless parrot confined to isolated islands around the southern part of New Zealand. It is critically endangered. The Kakapo is the world's heaviest parrot, and the only parrot that can not fly. It is also one of the world's few truly nocturnal parrots. It resembles an owl in some ways, so if often referred to as the "owl parrot". It can climb trees, having the sharp beak and claws of a parrot. Because it lives on the ground and nests in holes, it is very vulnerable to predators. Its population tends to fluctuate between about 120 and 131 from year to year.
