AKP helps protect the endangered Kiwi, one of the world’s most remarkable birds

Overview

With wings that cannot fly, feathers more like fur and whiskers like a cat, the endangered kiwi is one of the most unusual birds in the world. National Kiwi Hatchery Aotearoa is dedicating its efforts to protecting this icon, which only exists in New Zealand. Since 1995 the organization has hatched 1,500 chicks, bringing kiwis back from the brink of extinction. AKP has been supporting the park’s remarkable work since 2009.
