Dr Kevin Parker Dr Zoe Stone and Professor Doug Armstrong Toutouwai, North Island robin, are locally extinct in most of their original range but thanks to a collective community effort including several Massey University researchers, a successful translocation has taken place to reintroduce the bird in the Manawatū Turitea Reserve. Professor in Conservation Biology Doug Armstrong, postdoctoral fellows Zoe Stone and Liz Parlato and Massey PhD graduate Kevin Parker led the translocation in late April, which resulted in the capture of 40 robins from Bushy Park Tarapuruhi Forest sanctuary near Whanganui and transportation to the reserve, north of Massey’s Manawatū campus.
