Where do Kiwi birds live?

Kiwi don't need pristine native forest, and are found in scrub and rough farmland, exotic plantation forests, sand dunes and snowy tussocks, even mangroves. They especially like places with wetland vegetation, and where trees run down to a river's edge.

Research shows that the biggest threats to kiwi are warm blooded predators that have been introduced to New Zealand—mammals such as stoats, ferrets, dogs, cats and pigs. these new predators hunt by smell, and kiwi have an unhelpfully strong odour because they evolved to avoid predators who hunted by sight.
