Kakapo Files II Ep4 Any Minute Now cc

It’s the New Year and we’re in the early days of a big kÄkÄpÅ breeding season. Daryl Eason from the KÄkÄpÅ Team tells Alison Ballance that Esperance and Ian are the second kÄkÄpÅ to mate, and he expects that any minute now there will be plenty more birds mating. The kÄkÄpÅ population drops to 236 birds. Science advisor Andrew Digby explains why every living kÄkÄpÅ has had its genome sequenced, and what genes can reveal â€" including why some kÄkÄpÅ have olive feathers and others are bright green. And we meet over-achievers Flossie and Blades.
