Didn't realise they have these in Australia too. Anyway, although I do understand the humour, I'm not sure making fun of indigenous words because they're similar to words in English is that cool.

Edit: turns out they're a totally unrelated species to the Aotearoa/NZ one, weird that they use the Māori name for them.
