Adopt a Hectare - Restoring Rotopounamu
The Rotopopunamu Restoration Project is leading the way in the Tongariro - Taupo area with its predator-control. The ambitious goal of a predator-free New Zealand in 2050 is gaining credibility with the success of this and other projects in the Central North Island area. You can help by adopting a hectare of this area.
