We all want to protect our native wildlife and become true kaitiaki for the taonga species we share our home with, but knowing how to help isn’t always straightforward. 🐦🌊

This month’s Green Drinks dives into the world of seabirds and the growing threats they face in Aotearoa, with insights from Alison Chick, volunteer educator at the South Island Wildlife Hospital.

Alison will share how the hospital cares for sick and injured seabirds, why these birds often end up needing help, and the practical steps each of us can take to safeguard them in our everyday lives. You’re guaranteed to walk away with new knowledge and a deeper appreciation for these incredible manu!
