Dog attack victim with a difference

My daughter thought I should put this on the forum (she just loves the picture). Kiwis are more common in some areas than many realise, we often read in the local paper how one has either been run over or attacked by a dog. :icon_sad:

Aaaaaawww!! Can we have one pleeeeeeaaasssee!! :icon_mrgreen:

heck I had no idea kiwis were so big, I sort of assumed they were about he size of a blackbird (OK I was taken in by the little fluffy ones you buy at the airport, I admit it :icon_redface: )

Can't say I'd fancy taking on something with a beak like that. I'm sure it would get me before I could get it.

Ok, just joking.

This fellah stands about 3 meters tall. Glenda may have seen it - there's an island wildlife preserve (Akaroa??) near Keri Keri.
