http://www.savethekiwi.org.nz/AboutTheBird/
A small fightless bird from New Zealand very rare, very shy, and very funny looking, but a true New Zealander.
It has a spirit and the will to live and fight for its home. Its a cute little fella ;)
Hunted and almost wiped out by the moaris, even today they still hunt the bird.

It lays an egg one third of its own body weight.

I never knew that bird existed, I hope it's not on the verge of extinction from the moaris. :'(

Yeah it was the fruit came from China. And since they looked like the bird it got named that way.

Sheep were not native to New Zealand, like the possums, cockatoos, Moari's and rats. All introduced.

There is NO white New Zealand culture. Whenever there is a major event it's ALL maori crap.
What are the symbals of white NZ? I've never seen any.
At least at Aussie events we have stockmen, swagmen & the Man from Snowy River in his moleskins & RM Williams boots and Akubra hat. We don't do abbo cooberies at the football or the Commonwealth games.

Well have alot of Dutch influence here. The Dutch first found New Zealand they had whale and Sealing stations way before Captain Cook claimed it for England.
In a way yes we are like Australia with the Dutch being the first on our shores.
We are a free settlement, no convicts. :::D
It was the British, the French, Greeks and Italians that created the settlement.
Later the Dutch returned, and the Germans as well.
But New Zealand is manly Greek, Italian and Dutch as the European element.
The Brits don't stay long, and now we have alot of American's settling here.

Yes they are, but the Moaris are dealing with them tho. Funny thing is Moari's tend to like Jews. ;)
