Kiwis
Family Apterygidae

The three, perhaps four, existing species of kiwis are natural of New Zealand. Along with the ostriches, cassowaries, rheas and emus, the kiwis are studied in a group called the ratities. As these other birds, the kiwis are not able to fly. They have evolved to a terrestrial life with strong and well developed legs.
