Kia Ora
Meet Kia Ora, SCB's mascot for ICCB 2011!
Kia Ora is a kakapo (Strigops habroptilus), a critically endangered species endemic to New Zealand. Kakapos are flightless, nocturnal birds that have the distinction of being the rarest and heaviest members of the parrot family. They are threatened by the effects of habitat destruction, predation and hunting.
For more information regarding kakapo conservation efforts, please visit the New Zealand Department of Conservation at:
http://www.doc.govt.nz/conservation/native-animals/birds/land-birds/kakapo/.
Would you like a chance to host our mascot and perhaps win a free registration to the ICCB? Check out our Kia Ora contest!
