Kaitiakitanga (Guardianship and Stewardship) - Day 17
Tāne’s Gift of the Forest
Tāne planted the great forests and entrusted their care to humankind, warnihonoringto take only what was needed and to replenish what was used.
He sent the birds to teach people balance, showing them how each creature contributed to the wellbeing of the environment.
When people acted as kaitiaki (guardians), the land thrived; when they were careless, the land suffered.
Moral: Guardianship of the land ensures that future generations can thrive, honoring the gifts of nature.
