New Zealand officials issued warnings to Race to Survive: New Zealand producers after a contestant killed and ate a protected weka bird during filming.
The weka, a vulnerable species, is known for its bold curiosity and is endemic to New Zealand, often seen in campsites stealing food and objects.
Contestants in the reality show navigate South Island, forage for food, and compete for a $500,000 prize, facing eliminations for rule violations like Spencer Jones and Oliver Dev.
Teams are allowed only what they carry, with some food caches available, highlighting the extreme survival challenges they face on the show.
