Description

The Brook Waimarama Sanctuary is a community-based initiative working to create a pest-free wildlife sanctuary close to Nelson, New Zealand.

It applies a model first developed at Karori Sanctuary in Wellington. Enclosing an area with a pest-proof fence and eradicating all the pest mammals within it, allows the re-creation of a New Zealand which today is only found on a few offshore islands. Resident birds, reptiles and invertebrates will flourish and species previously lost from the area can be re-introduced.
