The Tokoeka (North Island Brown Kiwi) has never been gone from the wild, there's always been over 20,000 in the wild, mostly in Northland, Coromandel, Te Urewera, and Tongariro. The Southern Tokoeka is also hanging on alright in Rakiura (Stewart Island) and a little in Fiordland. The Roroa (great spotted) and little spotted are near extinct in the wild, the little one particularly is totally wiped out from the North Island and mostly only found on predator free island sanctuaries now.
