Don't mess with the kakapo
We have previously posted about the strange nocturnal ground-burrowing kakapo parrot of New Zealand. Just because it sounds like an evolutionary disaster doesn't mean the kakapo won't rape your head if you try to get too close.

Cockapoos threatening kakapos

The bayblab podcast epi #10 featured some discussion on strange animals. It reminded me of the strangest animal I've ever heard of, The Kakapo. It's a nocturnal ground burrowing flightless parrot found in New Zealand. The introduction of feral cats and dogs threaten it's existence as it is critically endangered. Hopefully this podcast on the kakapo works for you but I refuse to have Quicktime 7 on my laptop.
