Fish donation for recovering hoiho
Hungry hoiho at Dunedin's Wildlife Hospital have received a helping hand, or at least a large donation of fish.
With its usual suppliers operating with limited capacity, the hospital asked Fisheries New Zealand for assistance. The request was shared with the wider industry and Sealord offered to donate 37 boxes (the equivalent of one tonne) of southern blue whiting.
The hospital currently has eight penguins in hospital and another 28 in rehab at the private conservation reserve, Penguin Place, hospital trust manager Jordana Whyte said.
