The kiwi bird has a long pointed and slightly curved beak, specially adapted for the consumption of insects and small organisms that are found on the ground, as the kiwi cannot fly. Kiwi have their nostrils at the end of their beak because they have an exceptional sense of smell. They use their long bill and their sense of smell to locate food up to the depth of their bill below the surface of the ground.
