How do kiwi's protect themselves from danger?

The primary means of protection for a kiwi is hiding. Kiwi are nocturnal, and this behaviour enables them to evade their predators. They nest in burrows which they dig in the ground. Apart from that, they are virtually defenceless. When they are trapped, they may use their claws in defence, but this is not enough to prevent the many kiwi deaths that occur from dog attacks.


What are enemies of the kiwi?

The kiwi cannot defend itself effectively when other animals attack it. Attacks and hunting by dogs, cats, stoats and ferrets account for up to 95% of kiwi deaths. When cornered, a kiwi may try and defend itself with its sharp claws, but these are quite ineffective against predators.
