May 26, 2001 / Boundary Stream Mainland Island / North Island Brown Kiwi
Bird's name is Kote. Died 3 months after release from ferret predation. Egg removed from wild Kiwi in eastern Kaweka ranges, incubated in captivity at Rainbow springs, hatched, and raised until reached at least 800 gr. REARING TYPE: Kiwi are independent almost immediately after hatching- thus there is no particular rearing method.
