Our class mascot Kiwi has been to the Lake Roitoiti mainland Island project to see how the Department of Conservation are helping kiwis and other native birds. Kiwi was able to go because our school has joined the Learnz programme. While Kiwi was there he sent Room 15 some videos and email diaries about what was happening. Here are some photos of him wearing a transmitter and checking out a tracking tunnel. (Read Max's entry under The Brook Sanctuary post to find out how tracking tunnels and tubes work.) The DOC scientists used the transmitter to locate a great spotted kiwi in its burrow.
