Where are kiwi birds found?

Answer 1

The kiwi is endemic to New Zealand. Its natural habitat is native forests but it is now found in kauri and coniferous forest where the undergrowth is dominated by tree ferns, as well as temperate rainforests. However, due to habitat clearing, the kiwi is now forced to survive in semi-wooded forest, scrubland and agricultural areas.

Different species inhabit different areas of New Zealand.

• the Haast Tokoeka kiwi is found in high sub-alpine tussock grasslands of the South Island
• the Brown kiwi is found only on the North Island
• the Southern Tokoeka is found only in the far south of the South Island, as well as Stewart Island
• the great Spotted kiwi is found in forest areas in the north of the South Island
• the Rowi, or Okarito Rowi, is rare, and found only around Okarito
