  • Summary

  • A Miami zoo has cancelled their kiwi encounter attraction after a social media outcry.

    In a video the zoo posted to social media, a kiwi was shown being handled by visitors under bright lights.

    Experts were worried exposure to fluorescent lights would be harmful for the bird's eyesight, as kiwis are nocturnal.

    US correspondent Dan Mitchinson says the zoo's communications director has since apologised for 'offending a nation'.
