Kiwi Information Report
Kiwi’s are nocturnal because they are most active in the dark! When New Zealand was first created there where only a few birds and Lizards there,there were no predators on the ground and as there were lots of birds flying around to get the berries and the other stuff up in the trees the kiwis had no need to fly and as there were no predators the kiwis could just walk around on the ground! soon after the kiwis adapted to walking!
A part of the kiwis structural adaptation is that they have whiskers also the kiwis structural feature is their colour enables them to blend with the undergrowth in the forest! Kiwis are the only birds in the world with nostrils at the end of their beck The kiwi has no tail feathers but they do have whiskers like a cat!
Kiwis used to be able to fly but over the years they didn’t need them as there were no land predators and as there were some birds that could be predators to them! When the humans first arrived they brought rats,stoats and possums with them. These animals live like kiwis on the ground. These animals eat kiwis and kiwi eggs and this is the reason kiwis are going extinct!Kiwis have lots of different functions in their body that make them more like mammals than birds!
These adaptations are not as effective as they used to be because of the introduction of rats and stoats to New Zealand. Kiwi are now endangered.

Hi Isabelle, I'm Zahrah from Yaldhurst Model School.
ReplyDeleteI liked the way you have such a looong writing.
Did you think about adding a picture of a kiwi to describe your writing.
Next time, you could add a slide to put the the writing so you don't have
to scroll all the way to the other side of the blog post.
Cya!
