The kiwi's habitat varies depending on the species; subsequently, so does the climate.

The Kiwi is native to New Zealand, and its habitat ranges from the coast to low-alpine zones located 1,500 metres above sea level. While most species live in lower-level habitats, such as native forest, shrubland, wetlands and coastal dunes, the Haast Tokoeka kiwi lives in low-alpine tussock grassland between 1,000 and 1,500 m above sea level. In these areas, winter snow can stay above the treeline for weeks, burying kiwi burrow entrances, but the kiwi are able to tunnel through the snow.
