Call yourself a Kiwi?

What if our national namesake disappeared? Wild as that sounds, 68,000 native birds, including the kiwi, are killed by predators every night. With over 4,000 species at risk, New Zealand now tops the global endangered species list. That puts our name to shame.

As part of the Predator Free movement, we’re working to protect kiwi and other threatened wildlife, but we need help from everyone who calls themselves a Kiwi. So, we’re encouraging other Kiwi to do the same. If all six million of us give what we can to protect our native taonga, we can proudly call ourselves Kiwi for generations to come.

Find out how your support helps the national movement and donate at Call Yourself a Kiwi
