Episode Details

Wellington, New Zealand, is reviving its national bird, the kiwi, after a century-long absence. The Capital Kiwi Project has successfully relocated 250 kiwis, with volunteers releasing them into the wild under red torchlight. The project, spanning 24,000 hectares, has seen a 90% chick survival rate, with kiwis now spotted in backyards and on mountain bike trails. This grassroots effort aligns with New Zealands ambitious plan to eradicate invasive predators by 2050, demonstrating the power of community action in conservation.
