Tū Mai Taonga

The Tū Mai Taonga project is building an island-based conservation workforce that will trial new methodologies and tools to remove rats and feral cats at landscape scale on Aotea. Ecologically, the island has a head start because it is free from possums, mustelids and Norway rats, but ship rats, kiore and feral cats are having a devastating impact on its unique fauna. Twenty years of carefully documented work in island sanctuaries and trapping by community groups has shown how hard and how important the job is. Indicator species such as kererū, tūī and kākā are now increasing but others like pāteke (brown teal), tākoketai (black petrels) and niho taniwha (chevron skink) among others remain vulnerable. The Tū Mai Taonga Project is proceeding under the leadership, guiding vision and tikanga of the Ngāti Rehua Ngātiwai ki Aotea Trust.
