How Does The Tiny Kiwi Bird Survive When It Can't Fly? | Modern Dinosaurs | Real Wild

- The Kiwi is a bird that has thrown out the rulebook of bird biology. It doesn't fly, lives in the dark, and resembles a mammal more than anything bird-like. But how did a flightless bird find itself on islands in the middle of the ocean?

Surviving without flying is impressive but getting that massive egg out of that tiny cloaca is miraculous.
The fact that Kiwi are this round is what makes them look so cute and funny at the same time
They look more like rats than birds
The Platypus and the Kiwi bird are two of the coolest animals
My favorite two animals💚
One of two possibles:. 1- long ago the kiwi flew to the island then over time lost the ability to fly because they have no natural predators or 2- New Zealand and Australia were at one time connected and the little kiwi just walked around, then New Zealand moved away from Australia.
Or someone transported the kiwi by boat.
@@SalvableRuin good thought 🤔
I heard that the first one was how it happened but scientists are constantly changing theories
Zealandia is its own continent and the kiwis ancestors crossed when the sea levels were low is my hypothesis.
We know its the first one
This is definitely my favorite bird thank you for sharing this today!!
Play btd6 and get 100 trophies and buy the kiwi for the ninja monkey
Me too there sooooo cute! Except the moa being 3 and a half meters tall my dad I'd just 1 meter!
also I think I lost my mind
I like how people in the comments are complaining about how they take the eggs and babies away from their parents as if they literally did not pay attention to anything that was said. Some online scientists we have I see lol
i like people complaining about other people complain
@@stellviahohenheim 😂
I guess they'd rather have the chicks get eaten by stouts the moment they hatched lol
@@stellviahohenheim wow you’re so smart making that comment. What an epic comeback!
Poor mothers. Imagine carrying a gigantic egg and popping it out only to have giants taken it away or eaten by hungry wild animals. :(
Aaah a talking kiwi egg 🥚!
Owh! He's just a commenter,phew.
Same thing happened to my buddy Greg
As has been the story forever, it's the introduction of non-native species causes most of
the trouble. Stouts, weasels, cats, dogs all wreck havoc on these birds. Were it not for man and his short sightedness, these animals would be far better off. Heroic efforts, sadly, only happen when it's nearly too late.
@Tom Morrison I hate to hear that. Here in the states the powers that be have finally decided to do something about the envasives. But only after many Native species have been driven to extinction.
The worst introduction of non-native species is always humans, more damage to ecosystems, and more extinctions have been caused by humans than any other species.🖤🇨🇦
It would make sense to start rounding up the non-native / invasive species in tandem with the repopulation efforts.
this documentary in a nutshell:
talks about kiwi birds
changes topics into another bird
back to talking about kiwi bird
again changes topics
back to kiwi bird
You would think if the Kiwi went underground to avoid large predators they would develop other skills once those other larger eagles died out.
They very well might, if they last that long!
Haast's eagle has only been extinct for a few centuries - 'round about the early 1400s. There hasn't really been enough time yet for the kiwi to develop many new traits.
Guys,if u don’t like this video,I’m sad :( my favorite vid ever is this one!!!!
A blind man's cane detects slight vibrations caused by worms and insects? Who knew.
I understand why they take the eggs, but it's sad they take away the kiwi's right to raise it's offspring
I think the birds would rather the monkey to take their child and raise it than a furry fucking demon ending it on sight
GREAT video. 👍
By being fast and furious? 🤔😄 By not having natural predators?
Spot the obvious
@@Mr.Polymonstrum901 Yeah, I'm good at it.
Very wonderful., thank you. That Australia, New Zealand Antarctica and South America were one linked makes so much sense watching this. Very revealing of yet another piece of the puzzle.
Such as..... wait are moa's 6 meter?
Lol
Running , jumping, digging, burrowing.
I pity the female! That's one big egg.
I thought the title "How Does The Tiny Kiwi Bird Survive When It..." was going to be "lays this egg."
My favorite animal 🥰
i wanna be a kiwi when i grow up a pink one
Beautifu birds. Thanks for sharing. I can believe the kiwi ancestor(s) flew to the island and a descendent flightless form of the ancestral kiwi survived successfully. However, I can't buy the pitch that a volant ancestral kiwi, over millions of years of natural selection, evolved, or should i say devolved, vestigal wings.
You would not need wings if you didn't need to fly away.
Thanks Real Wild.
Oh wow. Never knew there were 5 species of Kiwi.
AMAZING WORLD
Kiwi in New Zealand and Platypus in Australia... 🤯🤯🤯
Also the kakapo
17:07 MY MATE TOM??? 🤣💀 or Your Mate Tom?? I love Tom 🥰
Couldn't the conservationists collect a breeding pair of kiwi and raise them in capacity
So nice video 👍👌
جميل 👍
21:50 when the sound similar to the Rupaul Drag Race shade sound came on
If you have a whole island, free from predators, where you're taking the babies... Why don't you simply move the 400 birds over there? No matter how pure hearted our efforts are, it seems we never learn... The more we insert ourselves into nature, the more harm we do.
11:37-12:45 *A - MA - ZING!!*
The stoat was introduced to control the "weather population" ???
No wonder if The Lord of The Rings and the Hobbits are shot here! Another world!
What an EGG!!!
My fav animal is the kiwi,finnaly someone knows what they are 😂
Yay me too
moa evolved to kiwis but the moa is flightless.
We are so good at driving things to extinction, it seems the thing to do is go after the stoats.
Yep...they don't belong there! They could round them up and return them to where they were taken!
Can they poop out a tracker that big or are they closing in on the cassowary to do surgery?
They pass through the digestive system, but a lot of cassowary digestion relies on fermentation - so it'll be in there awhile before it goes through.
I wish I could adopt one as a pet. But being a National Bird means government protection.
Can we see them hatching and growing up in nature!!?
Around the size of a small dog???
How big did you think they were?
@@einienj3281 I actually thought the surprise came from them being as big as a small dog. I thought they'd be smaller lol 😂
@@aa_001 My niece thought they were as small as a kiwi fruit and my husband thought they were as big as emu's.. 😄
A chicken exactly
@888 17 😄
What kind of question is that? Might as well ask how the penguin, emu and ostrich survive without flying?
This sure got off-topic away from kiwis quick...
❤️
Pangea was only about 250 million years ago and that as are last supper continent. Gondwana Was about 600 million years ago
Can I get the kiwi bird and make them a whole yard they are so cute omg
They're illegal to own which broke my heart to learn
@me-sb9ey Maybe someday in the future when theyre not endangered
They are so cute.
Avocado Bird :D
I wanna live in aussie or newie
What you need is a Python snek to sort all the pest problems. Maybe even some human issues also.
Yeah
What would you get with a kiwi bird and bat cross DNA modification?
it will be live a short life and wont be able to breed and die off
You can’t cross mammalian and avian dna.
A kat.
@@michelhickey5765 I know! A biwi! It's part bat part kiwi,right?
Lol.bat/kiwi,🤣
my wiwi go spin spin
🥝🥝🥝
why dont they let it hatch with the parents in the wild?
💗💗💗
I wanna adopt a baby kiwi :(
I know kiwis are good at rugby sports
THE FIRST TIME I LOOKED AT THIS BIRD , KIWI ON THE UA-cam
THAT MADE ME FEEL SO WONDER
AT HOW COME ON EARTH WE HAVE SUCH A KIND OF BIRD THAT ITS SHAPE IS SO WONDER , SIMPLE AND CUTE ....
IT IS SO PERFECTLY MADE BY THE CREATOR
AND THEN I FOUND OUT THAT IT CAN'T FLY
THAT IS ALSO A WONDER OF HOW CAN IT SURVIVE IN THE 🪵 WOODS ???😢😢😢😢 ....
AND AUSTRALIA HAS SO MANY ANIMALS WITH THE POCKETS TO KEEP THEIR BABIES SAFE
BUT THAT IS NOT FOUND FROM THE OTHER PLACES ON EARTH
THEN WE MUST BE REALIZED THAT
EVOLUTION OF LIFE IN ANIMALS IS FACING A GREAT CHALLENGE TO SOLVE THOSE QUESTIONS IN THE LAND OF EARTH
EVOLUTION IS NOT POSSIBLE
LOOK AT SO MANY ANIMALS THAT THEY HAVE THEIR OWN PLACES OF HABITAT
THINK 😂😂😂😂
NO CROSSING OF THE BOUNDARY CAN BE BROKEN IN ALL ANIMALS NATURALLY
BUT ONLY THE WICKED & SO CALLED SCIENTISTS COME TO THE INTERVENTION TO BREAK THE NATURAL LAW ....
BUT ANY HUMAN INTERVENTION CAN ONLY LEAD TO NATURAL DISASTER IN NATURE FOR THE ANIMAL KINGDOM 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
combination of chickens and mice
Are there any more names for the Australian Continent???
Australia, Oceana, and now Gondwana???
Why don't you people make up your mind!!!!
💗💗💗😍😍😍🌌🌌🌌
👍✌

And then you compeeeeeaa them
i want eat wiki
(❤ ω ❤)(❤ ω ❤) I love it
This is a propagandistic soap opera, not a documentary.
if u believe in evolution dont worry kiwi will have wings bigger and fly and evolute 😅😅😅 to survive
Wrong wrong and wrong
? ?
People really don't understand the harm they cause to animal by taking them out of their natural habitat to a man made environment. Young animal need natural stimuli to develop their senses. hatching a kiwi bird in a laboratory is actually cruelty.
The chick's are only hatched at the lab. They are born fully able to fend for themselves. If they did not intervene and do this, the stoats, an invasive species to NZ brought by humans to kill rabbits, also an invasive species brought by humans, would kill them and they would become extinct. If people have such an issue with conservationists doing their jobs and trying to ensure critically endangered species are able to rebound or, at the very least, not go extinct, then maybe you should redirect your anger at the moronic humans who caused this problem to start with! This is the effect of humans having to "conquer" all accessible areas of the world over the last 800 to 1,000 years, specifically ones they had no business being in, hunting for sport, etc... I'd much prefer those baby kiwis to have to interact with a human for a few days out of its life in order for their species to remain on earth to the alternative of no kiwis left alive due to the ignorance of some men a couple hundred years ago!
Yeah....I am with you about it. People think there are intelegent then bring some predetor to the region. After that blame the predator so they can learn about the animal more. So ironic..🤷
You saving the kiwi with one egg
man, in his hubris-filled mind, always thinks he is smarter than GOD. smh.
lesson from these video: cowards do survive 🤣
how can kiwis go on top on the moutens?
The giant moa most likely wouldn’t be attacked by the eagle most animal don’t hunt something bigger then them unless it is a pack animal who needs to feed more than himself
But haast's Eagle has a wingspan of 3 metres and moa could reach ¾ meters so...... what's the deference? I mean its not a big deal for the moa and haasts Eagle,right?
10 times larger than a chicken's egg? Then how can he fit it in his hand?Ten times larger than a robin's egg, maybe.
Of course! I mean...... ....... why not,I'd hire my 14 pets/2 ducks 1 canary bird and 11 duck eggs
Probably the same way the big guys did, I don't understand why they can believe one thing about one and not the other, I swear, it's just another way to waste money
Why you taking away their babies. Parants will be so heart broken
