The New Zealand Kiwi has nothing to do with kiwifruit. It lives in moist forests and uses its long, bendable bill to poke around the ground in search of worms.
Unlike many of the other flightless birds, the kiwi is not very large. It's only about a foot and a half long. To avoid predators, the kiwi hides during the day and comes out at night to search for food.
The kiwi has fine feathers that make it look almost furry. It has no tail feathers and its wings are so small they're typically not very easy to see.
