"The Taranaki forest is changing and the kōkako are finding it more difficult to find food and protect their chicks. Rats and possums are increasingly raiding nests, taking chicks and eggs, and the young kōkako Tamanui has lost his brothers and sisters. The forest is quiet, until he hears a kōkako call, but flying towards it, he is caught in a net. Taken to Mount Bruce, he adapts to a new environment, raises many chicks and becomes a cornerstone in the survival of the kōkako. Based on the true story of the kōkako Tamanui, now displayed in Puke Ariki, New Plymouth"--Publisher information.
