The kiwi's long beak is an adaptation that allows kiwi to find their food in a unique way. They are unusual birds with their nostrils located at the tip of their beak, and they have a very highly developed sense of smell, being able to smell out food beneath the surface of the ground.

Kiwi will dig their beaks into the ground to a depth that extends the entire length of the bill in order to find earthworms and other invertebrates.
