Do Kakapo have more than one habitat?

In an ideal, predator-free world, kakapo would indeed have more than one habitat. This flightless parrot, unique to New Zealand, was once found across a range of habitats. Fossil evidence indicates that kakapo used to range from the far north of North Island to the southern tip of the South Island, and across a range of terrain and biomes from near sea-level to near the tops of mountains, and from native forests and shrubland to tussock grasslands. Preferred native forests were those dominated by podocarps (rimu, matai, kahikatea, totara), beeches, tawa, and rata.

Now, because the remaining kakapo have had to be moved to protected islands, their habitat is restricted to dense bush amid steep terrain.
