865652 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stewart%20Island%20kiwi | Stewart Island kiwi | The Stewart Island tokoeka, Stewart Island kiwi, Rakiura tokoeka or Rakiura kiwi (Apteryx australis lawryi) is a subspecies of southern brown kiwi. It lives in New Zealand. This bird does not fly. It runs on the ground.
Appearance
The Stewart Island tokoeka is the largest type of southern brown kiwi. It has red-brown feathers that look like fur. It has small wings and does not fly. It has a long, curved bill, or beak. The nostrils are at the end of the bill, not at the top near the rest of its face. Experts think the kiwi can smell very well.
Habitat and family
About 20,000 Stewart Island tokoeka live on Stewart Island. Unlike other kiwis, they look for food during the day and at night instead of only at night.
Unlike other kiwis, the Stewart Island tokoeka does not live alone. Instead, Stewart Island tokoeka live in families. The baby kiwis stay with their parents for up to seven years. They help sit in their parents' younger eggs. This makes it so much easier to raise eggs that kiwi parents sometimes have two clutches, groups of eggs, each year. It also goes onto the beach to look for food, which most other kiwis do not do.
Threats
Mustelids, for example stoats, never came to Stewart Island the way they came to the rest of New Zealand as invasive species. So the Stewart Island tokoeka does not have stoats that try to eat its eggs and chicks. However, there are stray cats on Stewart Island, and they can be very big.

865680 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puppet%20History | Puppet History | Puppet History is a YouTube series by Ryan Bergara, Steven Lim, and Shane Madej in their company, Watcher. All three used to work with Buzzfeed. Bergara and Madej did BuzzFeed Unsolved. Steven Lim did the Buzzfeed food show Worth It. The series started in January 2020.
On Puppet History, a colorful puppet historian leads a game show, a contest. Each episode is about one strange thing from history. The two people in the contest answer questions, and the Professor gives them points.
Format
Puppet History is not fiction. All the historical events on the show are real.
"Welcome one and all to Puppet History. Today we take an ever-widening look into the heavy heavy book we call history while our guests ruthlessly compete for the coveted title of History Master! I am obviously your beloved host, the Professor!" - the Professor at the beginning of most episodes
The show begins with the Professor, a blue puppet voiced by Shane Madej, saying hello to the guests from a puppet theater stage. He then tells a story about history. He stops every few minutes to ask the two guests a question. They are sometimes multiple choice and sometimes not. The guests write down their answers on whiteboards. Then the professor says "Let's see the answer through the magic of theater!" and paper cutouts of the people from history act out the answer to the question. Then the professor gives "jelly beans" to whoever had the true answer. Each jelly bean is worth one point.
The Professor encourages the guests to speak and tell jokes. Sometimes, he will give a "rotten jelly bean" to whoever makes a bad joke. The rotten jelly bean is worth negative one points. The Professor gives the special guest extra points. This way, Ryan Bergara always loses.
Before the end of the show, the Professor leaves to "tally the score" and another puppet comes onto the stage and sings a song about the historical event.
The show always ends with the "coveted cup and title of History Master" going to the guest who is not Ryan Bergara. The cup is usually a small plastic trophy with real jelly bean candy in it. Sometimes it contains a small piece of Puppet History merchandise, for example a pin.
Characters
The Professor, a blue puppet voiced by Shane Madej
Ryan Bergara, as himself
Another contestant
At least one other puppet, also voiced by Shane Madej
Episodes
In season one, Ryan Bergara and the other contestant sat in chairs in the same room as the puppet theater. In seasons two and three, the show was "Puppet History: Online University" and both contestants appeared through computers. This was because of the coronavirus pandemic. Each episode has about 1 million views.
Professor
The Professor is a small hand puppet with blue fur and a white nose. He usually wears a safari hat and jacket and carries a satchel, or large bag. He wears glasses and a bow tie. Sometimes, he wears other costumes. For example, in the episode about Ching Shih, he wore a pirate hat.
The Professor sometimes talks about his life through wrong answers to the multiple-choice questions. These answers say the Professor found a magic lamp that had a magical genie inside it. He told the genie to turn a "seemingly ordinary household object" into a secret time machine. The genie did so, but was also "a total prick about it." In the flashbacks, the genie is also played by Shane Manej.
