Life begins at 40
Meet Tama Oha, a month-old Taranaki chick who has just become the 40th kiwi released on Sanctuary Mountain – Maungatautari as part of the Kiwis for Kiwi programme. Tama Oha, in the arms of Helen McCormick from the National Kiwi Hatchery, was hatched at the National Kiwi Hatchery in Rotorua and named by Taranaki iwi Ngāti Tama. Under the Kiwis for Kiwi programme Tama Oha is one of 500 Western Brown kiwi chicks released on Maungatautari over a five-year period. The programme began last year. The Cambridge News sent reporter Sophie Iremonger to Sanctuary Mountain to report on the latest release. See her story on page 5.
