Why are kiwis endangerd?

 Why are kiwis endangered?


  • Predators such as weasels, rats, possums, cats and dogs kill the big kiwis & eat the eggs or baby kiwis. It has dramatically increased the number of kiwis.


  • kiwis have lost their homes & habitat because of the cleaner of nativ bush for towns & houses. So kiwis won't have a safe home to lay their eggs in.


  • when people go on a bush walk they may take their dogs & sometimes people don't mean to but they walk on a kiwis nest & that will smash the nest. If they let their dogs off & the dogs run into a kiwis nest they will dig the nest up and eat the kiwis.
