Karori Sanctuary Trust / December 2005
Karori Sanctuary Trust has an extraordinary 500-year vision: to restore a corner of New Zealand as closely as possible to the way it was the day before humans arrived. Our groundbreaking 225ha (550 acre) sanctuary for native wildlife, established in 1995, was a major breakthrough in the recovery of native wildlife on mainland New Zealand, reversing a decline that has lasted for at least 700 years.
