If deforestation continues, and kiwi no longer have anywhere to hide from domestic dogs and other creatures that continue to ravage their populations, kiwi are likely to become extinct in the wild On the New Zealand mainland. However, not all species of kiwi are currently endangered, and conservation programs seek to relocate kiwi to protected islands where deforestation will not be permitted, and where they are also safe from introduced predators. There are likely to always be some kiwi in protective captivity as well, so chances are good that the species, as a whole, will not become extinct.

Sadly this has not happened, but if it did the answer would be that the world would lose a very unique bird.

Why is kiwi most different to the other birds?

Their unique characteristic is that they have nostrils at the END of their beaks - which seems to go well with their highly developed sense of smell.AlsoUnlike most birds, the kiwi is flightless. It falls within the infraclass Paleognathae (i.e. ratities) - a group of large flightless birds that also includes the Ostrich, Emu, Cassowary, and Rhea as well as the extinct Moa and Elephant Bird. It is most closely related to the extinct Elephant Bird.They are also unusual among other birds in that, along with some raptors, they have a functioning PAIR of ovaries. In most birds, the right ovary never matures, so that only the left is functional.Like many animals in Australia and New Zealand it probably developed so uniquely because it was ecologically isolated. (The Kiwi is only indigenous to New Zealand.)
