Kiwis Native To NZ
Kiwi's are native to New Zealand because the name derives from the Kiwi, a native flightless bird which is a national symbol of New Zealand. Until the first world war the kiwi represented the country.
A good sense of smell is a rare attribute for a bird, but kiwis have highly developed olfactory senses. They are the only birds with nostrils at the end of their beaks, along with sensory pits which allow them to sense prey underground.
