- Saving the Kiwis: One man's effort to save the national bird of New Zealand
August 2003
The Kiwi bird could soon become extinct on mainland New Zealand. But one man is determined to prevent this from happening.
Farmer David Wallace was horrified to learn that Kiwi chicks hatched in the wild only have a 5% chance of survival. He's on a mission to save his national bird and has built a 16 acre bird reserve on his land to protect them. Now he wants to turn the nearby mountain into a Kiwi sanctuary.

I love Kiwis! I want to travel to New Zealand so I can see them! They're so cute!
Pastelli-Kiwi I'm going on a trip there just to see some!
sounds so cool ; q ;
I would love to take a trip to Australia so I could see them too !
+Pastelli-Kiwi lol. So many in Australia.
+Sarah-Anne _ They're native to New Zealand.......there's none in Australia .......only in zoos
Yes I was being sarcastic!
I love these creatures, I hope they never become extinct. :'(
Too bad mate they’re almost gone
@@MirRaza4 Seriously? He commented 9 years ago and you commented on his comment 7 months ago. He must've waited a long time.
@@MiltonTu I’m just saying that kiwi is almost gone
I wasn’t expecting you to reply this quickly, but thanks for doing so. I moved here to Auckland recently, and I’m really hoping kiwis don’t go extinct. I hope I may one day see one in the wild. In fact, I hope our future descendants will be able to enjoy the natural beauty of the world. We must preserve nature because once it’s gone, it’s gone.
@@MiltonTu ok 🥝
Love how a random video about saving kiwis from 14 years ago popped up on my fyp- what sweet, kind people these are & the birds are adorable. obviously.
its called the recommended you degenerate
Wait they are endangered then LETS START A PROTEST SAVE THE KIWIS! I am doing this because im new zealand
Lenny Face I agree with you tho I'm not from New Zealand!
Did anyone else here that buzzing sound at the very end?? It scared the life out of me! SAVE THE KIWIS!!!!
It was a kiwi sending out a SOS for help.
Oh, okay! Thanks for telling me =3
Ya I heard the buzzing sound to
Monkeybomb374 Good! I thought I was going crazy! =)

#SaveTheKiwis
The only way to save kiwi's is by killing cats rats stoats ect
then do that lol
I love kiwis! It is my favorite animal after giraffe! Save them! Save the KIWI!
Idiot..
janardha Karam Fuck you!
janardha Karam Problem?
I wanna build a reserve for kiwi's where no animals but kiwi's are there and there will be a huge farm of whatever they eat and there will be a big pond so they can drink water! and there will be a hatching area!!
Omg Ill help you.
Yay!!
Adrian M Woah, buzzkill.
I WILL TOO! They're adorable!
Adrian M Lol, and you're just a sad wannabe-troll!
Kiwis are love, Kiwis are life
I love kiwi's! My goal in life is to go to New Zealand and see one!
Anyone else came here after watching the animated video of "kiwi" cuz that video is the most beautiful/sad videos on youtube...
Yes
Yep...it made me that depressed
Yes that was super sad
Me too
No worries guys the thud was a trampoline.... and now he is famous by all kiwis in New Zealand as the first kiwi to fly.
I'd argue that the Kakapo is just as cute as the kiwi. And also from New Zealand.
Great vid, but the music editing needs work; it overpowed the speaking in some parts.
Damn that's actually one hell of a BIG bird !
I know right? I didn't think they were that big I was hoping they were the size of my fist
Thank you so much for trying to save the kiwi they are so precious i have tears in my eyes these are my national bird they must be protected
Me randomly replying to a comment that's almost older than me.
I'm from NZ I have seen one and they are so adorable its sad to see they are endangered
It's good to see David Wallace doing well after retiring from Dunder Mifflin.
i love kiwi's they are so cute are harmless
must save the kiwi's
15 years later, and they’re still not extinct :’)
You guys rock! While on his world wide voyage on the Beagle, Darwin quoted of New Zealand 'you could hear the cacophony of the birds long before you sighted the land'. NZ is the land of the birds, and long should it be!!
Those haters have no LIFE!!!KIWIS FOR LIFE!!!
I want a kiwi as a pet :'(
It's illegal to own one as a pet
Why don't you get a bird and call it Kiwi like I did? Is that close enough?
+Robin Binnewies i know :'( thats why im gonna buy a zoo and then go hug my fluffy kiwis everyday :D
+natalie wragg oww that's so sweet and sad! hahaha thanks now I have the perfect name for a cockatoo
+gega27tt It's ok your welcome😇
Some reason these kind of birds fascinates me. The Kiwi, the Quail, the Ptarmigan, the Snipe, The Woodcock, The Kakapo etc. Short and stubby, yet bulbous and always full of character.
Awww, kiwi's are so cute, i hope they save those creatures!

As far as national symbols go, the Kiwi is by far the most adorable

If I have to have a hallucination, I prefer it to be that of a kiwi scurrying around on the ground around me.
Kiwi birds are CUTE!!!!!!!! save the kiwis
Save the Kiwi. Nice bird.
I love kiwis are merry cute
Good on these guys for what they are doing! Is there a website by any chance?
Maybe they could take on a few Kakapos as well? Or the Kokako with its haunting call?
aww there so cute!! :D

I make a Kiwi project in school... they are SOOO cute :3
Look at that face! Why wouldn’t you want to help it? There so cute!
Did they get that mountain in the end?
I wonder what the materials are that make up the pest proof fence? Even keeps cats out. Cool
SOOOOO cute!!!!! :)

OMG THEIRE SO CUTE
i love bird kiwi 💝💓 save kiwi bird!, but i want one kiwi too 😭
How did you get one??..
I wanna know their progress now.
its so CUTE
I luv kiwis there so cute. Save the kiwis!
They should teach them how to fly.
They can't die to they're weight and small winds. Like a Dodo bird. If we could teach them which I don't know if it's possible, Kiwi will survive much much longer.
*Wings*
Fly
Do To
(These are Typo corrections)
I wasn't serious about teaching them how to fly.
The audio at the end is screwed lol.
This video must be a good few years old - the fence is all up and its now pest free. Looking forward to getting back there - our house was converted into the Out In The Styx cafe when we left, 1km from the main south access to the inland island.
I have seen a kiwi Twice now. And my age... So young.
Save the kiwi! There so adorable. I want one! :D
