Scoop has an Ethical Paywall
March is Whio awareness month
March is Whio awareness month.
Numbers of Whio, or native blue duck are dangerously low. With less than 3000 of the species left, the Department of Conservation, New Zealand Forest and Bird, Genesis Energy and the Central North Island Blue Duck Trust have joined forces this month to raise awareness of the native Whio. We’d like your help too.
…everything you need to tell New Zealand about our native Whio.
Because if we don’t do something, the ten
dollar note is the only place we’ll be seeing the Whio in
the future.
