Endangered animals

The video discusses the kakapo, a flightless bird that faces threats from predators like rats and stoats. Due to their inability to fly, kakapos are endangered. Conservation efforts involve relocating them to predator-free islands and carefully nurturing their chicks to increase their population.

How do kakapos move around since they cannot fly?

• They swim across rivers.

• They glide from trees.

• They climb and skip.

• They dig tunnels.

What makes life on the ground dangerous for kakapos?

• They cannot find shelter.

• They can get lost easily.

• They are vulnerable to predators like rats and stoats.

• They struggle to find food.

Why are kakapos considered endangered?

• Their population has significantly decreased.

• They have a very short lifespan.

• They cannot reproduce in the wild.

• They are hunted by humans.

What strategy have scientists used to protect kakapos from predators?

• They have built large aviaries.

• They have trained them to fight predators.

• They have moved them to islands without predators.

• They have developed a special diet for them.

How do scientists ensure the survival of kakapo chicks?

• By keeping them in zoos.

• By providing them with special food.

• By teaching them to fly.

• By looking after them very carefully.
