Tuna kuwaruwharu (long-finned eel) is a mystical creature who lives in our rivers and lakes for many decades before returning to the ocean to swim north for months and thousands of kilometers to have their babies then die. Those babies all alone drift back on the same currents that bought us to New Zealand and return to our rivers. Our Tuna kuwaruwharu are Taonga, treasures to be cherished and protected. However, our wetlands are disappearing, and our waterways are polluted, destroying the habitat of our Tuna kuwaruwharu. Please do your part to help, clean a river, leave the bogs alone and treasure the gifts we have today for all to enjoy. To learn more about Mahinga Kai join us for a Huriawa Peninsula tour.
