Rotoroa Island Takahē Release

Don't miss the unique opportunity to be part of Tuatepere's release to his new home on Rotoroa Island and to meet his hopeful mate Mirai - one of Rotoroa's resident takahē!

Join Rotoroa Island's ranger (and chief takahē matchmaker) for a very exciting experience to view a takahē up close, learn about the amazing success of takahē recovery and Rotoroa Island's role in the programme.

With only 500 takahē in existence this is a really special chance to witness conservation in action!

THIS TAKAHE RELEASE EVENT IS FREE with your Rotoroa Island ferry ticket on Saturday 2 August.

For more information about the resident takahē on Rotoroa Island, visit rotoroa.org.nz.
