List of Kakapo
Every known Kakapo has been given a name by Kakapo Recovery Programme officials. Many of the older birds were given names with origins in the English language, but more recent chicks have been named from the Maori language. Some Kakapo, such as Richard Henry and Arab, are named after individuals who have provided assistance to the preservation efforts. In July 2004, three Kakapo died. Four chicks survived from the 2004 breeding season. One male Kakapo died in The New Zealand winter of 2005, bringing the population to 86 (41 female and 45 male birds).
