Kiwi Haast Tokoeka basic information

The Haast Tokoeka is a small, plump little bird, with a round body and small head with little eyes. Its beak is long and curved slightly downward, almost having been evolved specifically to feed from the ground. Two olfactory cavities have developed on the end of the beak, which the Kiwi will use to balance out its eyesight, which is very poor. The Haast Tokoeka has three toes on each foot, each toe having a powerful claw that the Kiwi will use to burrow a little hole underground to sleep in.
