The trickster Māui visited his tūpuna Mahuika to get fire for humankind. Do you know how the kāhu or kērangi helped with his mission?

In this video, our brand experience & business development manager Jooles shares pūrākau, facts and whakataukī about this special manu in honour of Te Wiki o te Reo Māori.

The Zoo has a rescued kāhu that was unable to be released to the wild due to it's injuries but is able to have a second life with our animal experience team and connect with all of you! You can learn more about it's journey to recovery in this video - youtu.be/fXnoaTFx8cg.

This is the second episode in our three-part series for Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, so stay tuned to hear more from our kaimahi!
