Te Puia’s three resident kiwi now have a new, state-of-the-art facility to call home. Following 18 months of construction, Te Puia’s new Kiwi Conservation Centre offers kiwi and manuhiri (visitors) a leading edge, purpose-built environment in which to live and learn. The Kiwi Conservation Centre will strengthen Te Puia’s conservation efforts including advocacy, captive breeding for release and dog aversion training. In the new centre, manuhiri (visitors) have a crystal clear viewing experience of the kiwi environment, with specialist, three-layer glass which also dampens noise, providing crucial sound insulation for the birds.
