Meet Tiaki, kaitiaki of the ngahere, our kauri hero dog
He always stays on track and will soon be visiting a reserve near you. We can't wait to for you to meet him.
Tiaki means 'to care for' and we thought it is the perfect name!
Keep an eye out once alert levels allow as we have exciting plans for Tiaki.🐕🌳
Congratulations to Davina Dean and Karea Sutherland Âû, the winners of the naming competition. They both proposed the name Kaitiaki, which is very close. Please send us a DM so we can organise prizes.
Thanks Chris Hannent for his volunteer design work bringing our kauri hero and their kurī to life, and Auckland Council and their Auckland Biosecurity team for their ongoing support.
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

We definitely need homes that are fit to live in but there are often frustrations when it comes to getting consent to modify your own home.
Do you think changes need made to the current process for building consent? Share your thoughts below.
