New Zealand's wildlife

Kiwis are New Zealand's friends,

but stoats and weasels are our fiends,
Our Christmas flower is the Pohutakawa tree,
and our forest friend is the great Tui.

In our 1880 history,

the Haast eagle flew up to a tree.

We had no mammals until we came,

they went further and further out of the big ships frame.

the Chinese Gooseberry is kept in farms,

but they are not stored in our big barns.

The great mountain Kea is an amazing sight,

 they land to eat and then take flight.

Now that you know about our land, 

I hope you come and . . .
