Maori do not eat kakapo any longer, as this flightless parrot is critically endangered. There are around 130 adults left in 2014, and these birds have been moved to offshore islands for their protection, where they are monitored. Kakapo numbers have suffered a huge decline since the arrival of the first people in New Zealand, and they are friendly and sociable birds, making them easy game for hunters. They were certainly eaten by the Maori.
Kakapo are not deadly. They pose no danger to other species, although they have occasionally been known to eat small reptiles. The kakapo is in more danger from other species than capable of posing a danger to other species.
No the kakapo does not migrate because it is a flightless bird and moves very slowly.Also the kakapo is highly endangered (iucn critically endangered) and numbers are about 125 left alive.because of this the kakapo is only found on cod fish and anchor islands so they are free from predators. so in this case they have no were to migrate as they cant get off these islands.
They eat seeds off native trees and they are green
Kakapo was created in 1845.
Grass is not really in the diet of the kakapo. Kakapo, which are large flightless parrots native to New Zealand, are omnivorous. Their favoured foods include fruits, seeds, roots, stems, leaves and nectar of selected plants, as well as fungi, insects and sometimes even small reptiles.
The kakapo is hunted by introduced predators such as stoats and cats. Feral cats decimated their population on Stewart Island. Dogs hunt and kill them, but do not eat them, while the kiore, or polynesian rat, hunt the chicks.
ways to help conserve the kakapo

Kakapo breed during summer, every 3-4 years. Their breeding season is synchronised ao that they breed at the same time. Breeding season coincides with seeding and fruiting seasons of the plants they eat.
Yes. Kakapo are nocturnal, an unusual trait in a parrot.
