Best Answer

The term Kiwi has multiple meanings.

1. A Kiwi is any of the species of Flightless Birds endemic (that means they live there) to New Zealand of the genus Apteryx (the only genus in family Apterygadie). At around the size of a domestic chicken, kiwi are by far the smallest living ratites. All kiwi species are endangered. The kiwi is also a national symbol of New Zealand.

So- while they may be found in zoos worldwide, they are most likely to be found in New Zealand.

2. The Kiwifruit (or kiwi) is the edible berry of a cultivar group of the woody vine Actinidia deliciosa and hybrids between this and other species in the genus Actinidia. The Actinidia is native to Shaanxi, China, so that is where it is most likely to be found. Or in your local grocery store, in the fruits and vegetables section.

Kiwifruit originated in China.

They were introduced to New Zealand, where they are still grown. They are also grown in Italy (the main provider), the United States (mainly California), France, Chile, Japan, Greece, and Australia.

Kiwi are small flightless birds which are native to New Zealand alone.

Kiwifruit are vine fruit which are native to China, while other species are native to India, Japan and even southeastern Siberia. They are grown as commercial crops in New Zealand, Chile, Italy, France and Greece, as well as the USA, along the coastal region of northern California extending up to the Southwest tip of British Columbia.

Italy is where you get the kind from the grocery store.

Unless, of course, you buy local, and they grow near your area.
