Kiwi belong to the group of birds known as ratites. Other ratites include the Southern cassowary of Australia and New Guinea, the emu from Australia, the ostrich from Africa and the rhea from South America.

Ratites have wings but the bones in their chests do not have the capacity for flight muscles, which is what a bird needs to fly.
