New Zealand rescued 46 eastern brown kiwi eggs in a record effort to save the endangered species.
A conservation trust in New Zealand’s Hawke’s Bay retrieved 46 eastern brown kiwi eggs from the Maungataniwha Native Forest in September 2025, marking what officials believe is a record single-operation collection.
The eggs were flown to hatcheries in Rotorua and Taupō for incubation, with teams working through cold nights and limited rest.
Once hatched, the chicks will be raised in predator-free enclosures until they weigh about one kilogram and are ready for release into protected areas.
The Maungataniwha Kiwi Programme, launched in 2006, has now helped save over 700 kiwi, making it one of New Zealand’s most successful conservation efforts.
