Question

extinct. the number of living kakapos greatly lowered over the past few hundred years as a result of hunting, disease, and loss of land. also, female kakapos only lay eggs every two to four years. something needed to be done in order for the kakapo to survive. thankfully, the people of new zealand did not want to lose the kakapo. so, the government made a plan for the conservation of this bird. in order to protect them from animals that could harm them, all kakapos have been put on small islands off the coast of the mainland. this helps keep the birds alive longer. it also makes it easier for scientists to track them. in addition, the scientists provide extra food for the kakapos when needed. they even help keep the birds eggs safe so they can hatch successfully. based on the text, what are two things the new zealand government is doing to help kakapos? protecting their eggs feeding them extra food teaching them to fly keeping them in a zoo

Explanation:

The text mentions that scientists (under the government - led conservation plan) provide extra food for kakapos when needed and help keep the birds' eggs safe for successful hatching. There is no mention of teaching them to fly or keeping them in a zoo.

Answer:

protecting their eggs, feeding them extra food
