The miro is a large forest tree that has a fruit that passes for a berry. This tree is strictly a conifer, but the (3) scales of the cone are reduced to a large soft-fleshed berry-like fruit about 20mm long and 10-15mm diameter, enclosing a single seed. Colour a red to purple. The fruit is much loved by the native pigeon Kereru, and dispersed by this bird.
The botanic name is Prumnopitys ferrugine.

Do possums kill native trees in New Zealand?
Yes. Possums are causing considerable destruction to New Zealand's environment, to which they were introduced in the 1800s. In New Zealand, possums are taking over native bushland, pushing out native species of birds, for which New Zealand is unique. Possums feed on the vegetation, reducing its availability for native species, and nest in the trees, forcing smaller species out. There are no natural predators of the possum in New Zealand, so their population has increased dramatically. Possums strip the native plants of leaves, buds, flowers, fruits and seeds, meaning less chances of propagation. New Zealand trees do not have defensive chemicals of some Australian native trees, meaning the possums can continue to eat from one tree until the tree has been severely affected. Many of these plant species are disappearing from the New Zealand forests, and allowing invasive non-native species to take hold of the forests.
