About Kokako

Kōkako is mainly grey with additional blue colouring. It appears on the New Zealand $50 note.

Endemic to New Zealand, it is a New Zealand Wattlebird along with the endangered Saddleback and the now extinct Huia. It was once widespread in New Zealand, but introduced predators such as rats, cats, stoats, and possums have resulted in the sharp decline of New Zealand wattlebirds including the Kokako.
