Northland Native Wildlife
Northland's success is largely due to the efforts of community, hapū and iwi-led conservation projects, working in partnership with government agencies, other organisations and private landowners to carry out predator control, protect vulnerable wildlife and advocate for responsible dog control.
Groups & Projects
Entities linked in to the Kiwi Coast include community-led projects, hapū and iwi, forest management companies, government agencies, organisations, farmers and schools.
Northland Kiwi
There are five species of kiwi in Aotearoa. In Northland we have the North Island Brown Kiwi. Once declining at a fast pace, their numbers have now stabilised and are steadily increasing where there is good dog control and sustained pest control.
Native Wildlife
Pest control that may be carried out in the name of kiwi, has flow-on benefits for native forest health and other wildlife.
Environmental Education
Kiwi Coast's education program "Te Waka Kaitiaki' began in 2019, with Mid North Kiwi Coast Coordinator Andrew Mentor visiting kindergartens, kura/schools, and marae across Northland.
