The Kakapo


  • The Kakapo use their short wings for balance and support rather than flapping.
  • Their feathers are much softer than any other birds because they do not need to be strong and stiff enough to support flight.
  • Even though they can’t fly they manage to get around.
  • The Kakapo has strong legs which make them good hiking and climbing legs.
