Gondwana land no longer exists. It has to do with the theory of tectonic plates. At one time the continents of Africa, South America, Australia, Antarctica, the sub continent of India, and the Island of New Zealand one body of land. That piece of land split apart and became the pieces of land they are today.

The animals and plants on that piece of land explain the close connection between many of the creatures that exist on those separated pieces and why those pieces of land can fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. For example, the flightless Ostrich of Africa is closely related to the Rhea of South America. Both are closely related to the Kiwi of New Zealand.
