Give kauri space to grow
To preserve kauri for generations to come, we need to give them space to grow. That’s why 10 rules have been introduced as part of a National Plan to protect kauri from the pathogen that causes kauri dieback disease.
You will need to follow the rules for protecting kauri if you:
- Go into a kauri forest area
- Grow kauri plants/trees
- Have kauri on your property
- Own farm animals/stock that graze in or near a kauri forest
Together we can protect kauri. Find out what you can do

Two dogs - one dead pet hen, one dead duck
There have been two dogs roaming around the waterfront properties on Pine Ridge Tce in the morning, afternoon, and late at night. They have killed two birds that I know of. One dead pet hen, one dead duck. One dog is tall, whitish, and the other is possibly black, smallish, with white blotches (sorry, the description is vague). Can the owners please control their dogs? Apart from pets on properties, the area is of ecological significance and home to endangered shorebirds. I like dogs and have had two of my own. I understand the responsibilities involved. Could the owners of the roaming dogs in the area please take measures to control them and ensure no further harm to pets and wildlife?
