A conservation story and a unique way to teach simple mathematics, especially addition and subtraction, to plot the progress of the Takahē, once thought to be extinct.
Includes information at back of book on the rediscovery of the takahē that launched New Zealand's longest running endangered species programme.
"Take one isolated island. Add lots of tussock grasses and a few green ferns. Add a flock of large birds called takahē. Subtract any predators. Leave in peace for one million years. What is the sum? Then settlers arrive, with pests and livestock. How do the numbers add up now? This is takahē maths."--Back cover.
