Description: | The kaka is a large parrot that lives in New Zealand. There are two sub-species living on the North and South Islands. Kaka have a brush tongue to take nectar from flowers, as well as eating seeds, berries and invertebrates. They play an important role by pollinating flowers. Introduced predators and forest clearance for agriculture and logging have had a devastating effect on the population. The New Zealand government has established a national project to help the species recover.
