The rare white kiwi was born May 1st, She's grumpy, grouchy and packs a mighty good kick, Just like a healthy kiwi should. Manukura is the name of the rare white kiwi she is among the rarest of birds in New Zealand. And she has regained her energy after a heart scare during surgery on Friday to remove a stone from her digestive system. Manukura is recovering in Wellington Zoo. "She growls and she grumbles and she's getting really stroppy. So that's amazing, that's the normal kiwi behavior, and we love it when our little patients do that." Most kiwi are brown to camoflauge in the forest undergrowth. White kiwi's which lack color, have been sighted in the wild, but Manukura is the first born in captivity.
