Kiwi carnage is continuing in Kerikeri with another of the endangered birds killed by a car on the same day the Advocate ran a story about five kiwi deaths on one stretch of road.
The latest death, on August 14, occurred on Rangitane Rd, on a bridge between St Anthony's Way and Kurapari Rd.
It came just two days after a kiwi was killed on nearby Redcliffs Rd, and brings the total for the north side of Kerikeri Inlet to six so far this year.
All the deaths have occurred on Redcliffs Rd, Rangitane Rd and Opito Bay Rd.
