Summary
The article explores the unique and disproportionately large size of the kiwi bird's egg, which is about one-fifth the size of the mother's body. This adaptation is believed to be an evolutionary trade-off that allows the kiwi to produce a single, well-developed chick rather than multiple smaller eggs.
