Baby Tuatara at PÅ«kaha
A BIG kia ora to,
Ohorere 👋
Ohorere is the first Tuatara to hatch at PÅ«kaha since 2005.
Named by one of our Cultural Advisors Mike Kawana, Ohorere means to be surprised or shocked in Te reo.
Ohorere was found by a small class that noticed a hatched egg in our Tuatara enclosure.
This little guy took everyone by surprise even our Rangers and Staff!
Look at him sitting proudly, you may even see his little egg tooth if you look close enough👀.
