New Zealand Deaf Sport Mascot: A stuffed Kiwi

A stuffed Kiwi, in a cartoonish design, dressed in a black top with a Olympic and fern symbol on its top. It was used by NZ Deaf sport teams, such as those attending World Games for the Deaf, or NZ Sport Representatives such as the 1985 New Zealand Deaf Netball Team who participated in the 4th Trans-Tasman Games. The mascot is currently in possession by Wellington Deaf Society, donated by Tony Walton (ex-President of NZ Amateur Deaf Sports Association).
