The kākāpō is a large, flightless parrot native to New Zealand. Known for its distinctive green and yellow plumage, it has a stout body and a large beak. The kākāpō is nocturnal, meaning it is active at night, and primarily feeds on fruits, seeds, and flowers. Once widespread, the kākāpō population declined dramatically due to habitat loss and introduced predators. Conservation efforts have been implemented to protect this endangered species, including breeding programs and habitat restoration. Today, the kākāpō is a symbol of New Zealand's unique wildlife and ongoing conservation efforts.
