Our hub (room 19 and room 20) are called the Takahe Hub. We are learning about the Takahe. We had to conduct some research using books, journals and the internet to find information to share. Here are some photos and facts:
- The Takahe eggs have spots on them.
- They are the size of a chicken.
- The Takahe is a flightless bird - it lives on the ground.
- The Takahe babies are black.
- They mostly eat tussock grass.
- The Takahe gets chased by stoats, cats, dogs, deer.
- They have been around for 8 million years.
- In October 2017 there were only 347 Takahe left.
- They are born in the South Island.
- They are endangered.
- They use their big strong beak to cut into the bottom of the juicy part of grass.
- They live in mountains.
- They could fly a very long time ago.
