The Kiwi Birdlife Park is involved in coordinated conservation projects throughout New Zealand.
They are a part of the nationwide kiwi breed-for-release programme.
Kiwi are bred at the Park & cared for until they are 1kg in weight – big enough to fend off the predators that are killing them as hatchlings. They are then released into safe predator-controlled areas. They have released kiwi into the Rimutaka Forest Park, Mt Bruce Sanctuary, and the Maungataniwha Sanctuary
CONSERVATION… programmes for over 20 endangered native species, including breed for release for some iconic native species such as Kiwi, Whio, Pateke, Grand Skink and Otago Skink. Some of these species like Pateke (Brown Teal) are incredibly rare. Pateke numbers plummeted to 400 left in the world in the year 2000 and we have released over 100 into the world since then.
They Have 5 acres of forest sanctuary where you will find it enough space to enjoy the beautiful of the park and its birdlife
