Kua wetekia te hunga rangatahi i te ao tūroa ki tō ngā tūpuna, ngā mātua ō mua. He noho tāone e tupungia ai e te taupori o te ao, ā, ko te nohoanga Māori te wheakoranga e mate haere ana. I te tau 2018, i whakahaerehia e mātou ngā papamahi e 8 ki ngā tauira 13 ki te 17 tau te pakeke nō ngā Wharekura e rua kia whakatōmenehia te whakatinana o te mahere Cultural Monitoring. Ahakoa i whai hua te urunga o te Cultural Monitoring i roto i ngaa papamahi pūnaha hauropi, he wero nui kia mārama ai ki te pokapū o te reo hauropi.

Five herbivorous introduced mammals are sympatric in the central Southern Alps. All of these species have the potential to affect conservation values, yet the Department of Conservation at present monitors and mitigates the impacts of only one. We outline ecological arguments for multi-species management of sympatric herbivore pest impacts and use the two- species system of sympatric thar and chamois to highlight the need for multi-species management of the central Southern Alps alpine pest community.
