ENDANGERED NEW ZEALAND BIRDS

We were learning about endangered birds and what will kill them if they are not kept safe,and my teacher put the assessment sheet we had to work on and it was about the endangered birds. I also had to list down some predators

1. Make a list of some endangered birds in New Zealand.

  

Takahe      There are 200 Takahe's left in the world.

Black Robin  There are only 250 Black Robin’s left in the world.

Kakapo  There are only 40 Kakapos left in the world.

2.  Why have these birds become endangered?
These defenseless birds were an easy food source for the first humans, ancestors of the New Zealand Maoris, and later European settlers. People brought with them a host of predators: dogs, cats, weasels, possums, and rats.

3.  What can you do to help endangered birds?

I can help by picking up rubbish because sometimes bird’s think that plastic bags are food and eat the plastic then they could die.
