With a passion for the natural world and a background in environmental and outdoor education, DOC Community Ranger, Maree Limpus, has witnessed the positive impact nature can have on people and their well-being.
Wink is a one-eyed Conservation Dog from Invercargill with an important job: detecting pests and sniffing out Spartina grass.
His well-tuned nose has brought him up all the way up to Hauraki and Coromandel.
They say Coromandel is good for the soul and I reckon the lovely Rapaura Watergardens at Tapu are good for the soul and the heart. With 64 acres (about 26 hectares) of native bush, lush gardens and delightful waterfalls, it’s a welcoming haven for those needing rest or some space and time with nature.
The government’s fast-track bill has opened the Coromandel up to mining by overseas companies, leaving some of our most beloved places vulnerable to the destructive and toxic effects of mining.
Did you know? Over the last decade, the average abundance of legal-sized snapper has been nine times higher within the reserve than outside. (Based on baited underwater video monitoring, 2006-2018).
