Because it’s been seen so rarely, scientists still know very little about it. But its striking features are already sparking debate about whether it should be given special protection, and some have even argued it could become an icon species for Papua New Guinea.
At a time when we so often hear about species disappearing, the return of this little shark is a reminder that nature can surprise us ... and that there’s always reason to hope.

(which I'll have in stock for you). I provide the brushes, acrylics and lots of 'step by step' information photocopies for you to take home and keep. Classes will be at the Haitaitai Community Center. My question to everyone is this, which days and times would suit people best? I'll create some classes from your responses.

Research published this year has demonstrated that playing music helps keep dementia at bay - no matter how late in life the skill is picked up.
The basic idea behind this research is not new - we know that 'cognitive reserve' (learning new things) plays a big role in delaying mental slowdown. But the reminder that "it is never too late" is welcome ...

Its great to see ongoing and consistent efforts to recycle citywide.
The volumes have decreased, partially in line with the ongoing recession, Wellington's population declining in the last couple of years.

The Greater Brooklyn Residents Association Inc invites you to their two candidates meeting to be held at the end of the month.
Firstly, on Tuesday the 23rd of September, we host the Mayoral candidates meeting.
Secondly, on Thursday the 25th of September, we host the Southern Ward, Maori and Greater Wellington Regional Council candidates.
We will run both meetings as follows (the order may change as we fine tune the running of the evening closer to the time):
# 7pm (sharp!) - Welcome to the candidates and audience, rules of the evening (introduction, no water pistols, respect for candidates and other members of the audience)
# candidates will all get asked some questions – requiring a yes/no answer or a very short explanation.
# Then each candidate will get around 2 possibly 3 minutes to talk.
# Then we will have some limited questions from the floor.
ACCESS TO THE VENUE
The venue is the Brooklyn Community Centre, 18 Harrison Street, Brooklyn.
The #7 and #17 buses all stop at the hub or near the intersection of Harrison Street and Cleveland Street. These buses come from the railway station or from Kowhai Park (#17) or Kingston (#7).
The #29 and #39 buses come from somewhere around/near Island Bay or Owhiro Bay.
There is a fence you can lock your bikes to.
There is very little vehicle parking in Harrison Street. So if you are close enough we encourage you to walk to the venue. If coming by car, plan to park elsewhere and walk. We can’t reserve parking for you all at the centre.
We look forward to you exercising your democratic duties, in a positive and respectful manner.

It is Conservation Week! Do you have any big plans for Conservation Week?
So many native fauna and flora make New Zealand special - show us a picture of your backyard native species in the comments below 💚 Perhaps we can inspire others to find the beauty in our local species.
Spring’s here, and with it comes warmer weather and lots of activity from our birds. It’s a great time to get outside—many birds are easier to spot as they build nests, raise their chicks, or return from their Arctic adventures 👀

Keen to do some backyard birdwatching? The Department of Conservation have put together a nifty guide on how to plan and plant a garden that attracts native birds.
