Maybe in the native bush you may encounter a wild pig, but as for animals we dont have anything and all our birds are pretty much found only here.

And having been over seas to different countires, New Zealand is one of the mose beautifulist places in the world.

our national emblem is a Kiwi, which is a bird. a not so large flightless bird which hops around at night and lays giant eggs. as opposed to a kiwifruit which is a renamed chinese gooseberry. so most of us new zealand inhabitants are known as "kiwis".

Haha. Funny imagery. That's cool though. BY giant eggs, you mean relative to it's size, right? How big are the birds?

Yeah. I'd pretty much have to drive, swim, swim, swim, swim, swim some more and then drive some more.

New Zealand waterfalls look a lot like American waterfalls. How weird is that?
