New Zealand

Here we go. So i went to Wellington, the capital of New Zealand. They talk english, maori and New Zealands here. The economy is primarily related to animal husbandry and industry, and thats good, cause I love animals. New Zealand currently got  active vulcanos, that kind of freaks me out a bit but cool. They got annually 20 000 earthquakes, allthough only 200 of them is easily for people to notice.
Three species of bats, seals and whales are the only native mammals; all the other ones are introduced. Of the 53 species of mammals are about 10 wild. Maori introduced the dog and rat.

As much as 90 percent of the european immigrants are british. The Maoris originated from indigenous and represents only 15 percents. The people of New Zealand are called Kiwis.
They are named after the non-flying bird kiwi. poor guy. which only lives in New Zealand.

 

Thats some facts about New Zealand. Hope you learned something, at least I did. Tomorrow I'm going to see more of this kiwi-land.
