him chasing her around right in front of the camera, coming in and out of frame is hilarious 😂😂
They must be protected at all costs.
That's why new Zealanders hate cats
They're a menace to kiwi and other native birds
stout genocide? 😢
"he flirts by grunting and tapping her bottom..." sounds oddly familiar.
r/holup
Kiwi gon get cancelled.
KiNKy
this is the first time i heard a kiwi. OH MY GOSH THEY SOUND LIKE GAME SOUND EFFECTS
Dear BBC Earth, you've got the best filmography of animals that I ever see. The angles, the narration, the music, the story whole story telling. KUDOS!
Yay my favorite fruit is back!!!

@@METHYLENEDlOXYMETHAMPHETAMINE XD
Awww, that's such a cute comment
:( I thought I was everyones favorite fruit.
@weird vibxz not just Maori people lmao, everyone in NZ is referred to as a Kiwi.
Spent 14 months in NZ, so beautiful country and so kind people!
This is aborable.
you're adorable
kiss
;)
YES
Kiwi bird aborable
"...often mate for life, and females are very fussy"
sounds about right.
So the males need to tap dat ass to get the girl?
No, that results in a law-suit for rape
Yeah and the exact contrary of our own species
a b even in animal kingdom. they do have the same.. lol
@@xavierhorn9825 oh God , jokes are so serious these days
They sound like pokemon and look like tiny tailless t-rexes.
Like one headed Doduos
Beautiful birds.
“Intimate moments”
*kiwi runs across screen*
*FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER KIWI*
loved nz, such a wonderful country
This is basically a NZ pub on a Friday night.
I love these birds so much, more like small fluffy T-Rex's
It is indeed currently real kiwi hours and love is in the air 🥺🥺🥺🥝🥝💝💖💕
There so cute
*They're
+Mute TrueFireAnt is right. They're = They Are
awwwww no i wanted to see them living together like a married couple
I never knew of these creatures up until just now. Thank you So Much BBC Earth :)
I ❤️ these birds and I ❤️ 🇳🇿
One of my favourite beasties; would love to sculpt one!
is the fruit named after the bird? the bird named after the fruit? or neither? 🤔
good question
Nathaniel Patel neither kiwi fruits are actually Chinese gooseberry's "kiwi fruit" is just cleaver marketing :)
actually all started with the bird, gradually "Kiwi" changed meaning to "New Zealand's" or "New Zealander", and of course, the fruit NZ is famous for as well
Fruit is named after the bird
Wonderful footage.. cute kiwis running around.
I'm a Kiwi bird fan now☺️
They run so cute omg
Beautiful
2:19 😏

Russel Portela link to ur profile pic pls its hilarious

"He FLIRTS by grunting and tapping her bottom, she takes ALOT of persuading but EVENTUALLY succumbs to it..."
Sounds too familiar for my liking..... lol... or should I say, wait why is he talking about my love life??....

Looks like my house.
There like a grumpy old man waking up 😊

How did millions of evolution result in this bird lmao. At least they cute🤷🏻♂️
AHHH CUTE
Kiwis are my favourite fruit
ROUND!!...
They just only wanted to fly...I cry every time.
that looked like a Scooby doo chase scene. someone please dub some comical chase music over it
best nvc EVER. What brand and where can I purchase the same night vision cam?
1:12 a kiwi trying to look like a moa live the Ture cause looks at those feathers and body
Comments get cringy when people start comparing animals mating behaviors to people's love life.
"This bird reminds me of the fact that I'm lonely, waaah!"
They’re cute :3
Their calls sound like the mix of a squirrel and a bird
que cosillas los kiwis :D
yo whats this Animal Crossing music
thay are cute
2:18 So Kiwis flirt by booty slaps? Awesome
Kiwi getting it more than I am...
They seem so helpless without hands or wings...
I guess we're not really that different from animals after all
The true hero of Naruto
humans have divorce proceedings and alimony. animals have not.
💓💓💓💓💓💓
The description misspelled primeval. . .
CUTENESS OVERLOADD IM GETTING DIABETES FROM KIWI ❤️❤️❤️
Cute.
These are Real Kiwi Hours
I want one as a pet
CORRECTION: It's primeval, not "prime evil" :) Please update update your video description.
Is this the same series as the one by Nat Geo? I can't seem to find anything about 'Wild New Zealand' online and would love to buy it.
This was shown on the BBC as New Zealand: Earth's Mystical Isles. It is also on Amazon (the streaming service)
A floppy floppy popsicle, when held by the beak.
does anyone remember that animation on youtube from like a million years ago about the kiwi bird?????
shhh...we don't speak of it
it is currently, real kiwi hours.
1:51 Is it weird I thought Benny Hill should've been playing?
The old 'tapping her bottom with his beak' trick. Hot tip - that ain't his beak, love.
How do they even mate?!
*looks at the kiwi taping dat ass to get a girl* WAKE ME UP WAKE ME UP INSIDE CANT WAKE UP SAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
* primeval
Marie Maidyn I totally went like: "What prime evil?" 😂 I mean, "middle of the night", "something is stirring"...my mind went to dark places here....
A modern love 🥺
Kiwi
The fruit name of New Zealand
The Avian Rat of New Zealand (a Nocturnal Scavenger)
"Try to imagine yourself in a New Zealand forest
You get your first look at this "half foot turkey" as you enter a clearing
He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like T-Rex, he'll lose you if you don't move.
But no, not the kiwi.
You stare at him, and he just stares right back.
And that's when the attack comes.
Not from the front, but from behind, from the other kiwi you didn't even know were there. Because Kiwi's a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he slashes at you with this- a one-and-a-half-inch beak, like a razor, in the middle of his face. He doesn't bother to bite your jugular like a lion, oh no... He slashes at you here, [makes slashing motions below the child's ankle] or here... [below the knee] Or maybe even taps you here, right on the behind
The point is... you are alive when they start to eat you.
So you know...
try to show a little respect."
Lol I would pick up the kiwis ez 😂 and they eat worms
It doesn't look very scary! More like a one foot turkey!
naughty kiwi..
Little dinosaurs
This was on t.v. Last night
I used to eat these as the Tasmanian Devil on SNES.
Searches up David Attenboroughs New Zealand doco....
Finds a video with out David Attenborough
Is that Sam Neil??? I love that guy
Such an elegant way of breeding. Chasing whilst tapping its stick(beak) at the bottom..it tickles sort of!!..🤭🤭
OwO kiwis burrows?
I didn't know Dat.
They sleep in the burrows or hollow logs during daylight hours.
They sound like Pokemon
Sam Neill?
That'd be awesome
oh boy can't wait till this one becomes a lemme smash
Fumetsu Kage I've found you laughing man! XD
What part of New Zealand was this scene filmed in?
Most Likely the south island or Stewart island because that's where they are mainly found.
huh, I thought Brown Kiwis were found over both islands. I think it is probably filmed at Zealandia in Wellington on the NORTH Island simply because, they said the Kiwis were habituated to allow filming, and Zealandia is the most logical location for such things.
Hot.... especially the ending
çok mutsuzum
I was expecting a haka...
The music sounds like Animal Crossing music.
In the future I hope that kiwi's take over the world.
I have yet to find a documentary snippet video without boring and sexist comparisons of human and animal male female relationships in the comment section. Seriously. What is wrong with you people.
I want the ability to turn into a kiwi
Where is the old narrator ??? He was so gooodddd
David Attenborough is still around.
Primeval, not prime evil.
I was looking for this comment. I hope they fix the description.
TrueFireAnt you never know with the the kiwi bird 🤣
