4. The Unique Wildlife
独一无二的野生动物
New Zealand split from the large land mass joining Australia and Antarctica about 85 million years ago, resulting in bird and plant species that are found nowhere else. Forests contain an abundance of interesting plant life from the towering ancient kauri trees to fronds of nikau palms. You might even see a kiwi – a small, flightless bird that has become the national symbol.
新西兰是大约8500万年以前和澳大利亚跟南极洲大陆一起与亚欧大陆分离，从未形成了独特的野生动植物物种。森林包括了很多有趣的植物，从高耸的杉树到尼考棕榈。你可能还会见到基维鸟，一种体型小巧，不会飞行的鸟类，是新西兰的象征。
