This species of kakahi is the rarer of the two species found in the Wellington Region and have previously only been recorded in the northern end of Lake Wairarapa 🌊 This new find is good news for this species as being present over a wider range of habitats and locations should help with the ongoing survival of their populations.

If you're planning to enjoy the long weekend with some recreational boating, we've got some top tips!

As we’re going into colder weather it becomes more important to keep safety a top priority. Did you know that in water, the body loses heat 20 to 30 times faster than it does in air! 😲 We encourage boaties to remember these five simple precautions:

• Wear your lifejacket
• Take two waterproof ways to call for help
• Check the marine weather forecast
• Avoid alcohol
• Be a responsible skipper

And remember, if in doubt, don’t go out 🐟
