What bird is the kiwis extinct cousin?
The kiwi's extinct cousin is known as the elephant bird (Aepyornithidae). The elephant bird was a large, flightless bird native to the island of Madagascar. It is considered one of the largest birds to have ever existed. These birds went extinct several centuries ago, likely due to a combination of factors, including habitat loss and hunting by humans. The kiwi and the elephant bird are not closely related in terms of taxonomy, but they share some similarities due to convergent evolution. Both are flightless, ground-dwelling birds with small wings and a long, slender bill. They also have similar ecological roles as they both fill niches similar to those of small mammals in their respective ecosystems. Kiwis, which are native to New Zealand, are the closest living relatives to the extinct elephant bird.
