- raverbashing 5y agoYou're assuming NZ has significant native predators. But it doesn't have any major native mammalian predator. https://www.nznatureguy.com/2019/04/10/new-zealands-big-3-predators-stoats-rats-possums/ https://www.nznatureguy.com/2019/04/10/new-zealands-big-3-pr... One interesting "proof" of it is the Kiwi bird existing, because it could have not existed with competent predators.
