Takahe chicks join the family: Tiritiri Matangi Island
Both takahe pairs on Tiritiri Matangi Island have hatched chicks.
Anatori and Tussie have welcomed two chicks to the world while Edge and Turutu have one new baby at the Hauraki Gulf predator free island.
The chicks seem to be thriving but the first few months prove the most risky for chick survival.
Tiritiri Matangi Island provides a safe haven for the breeding pairs, who are helping to grow the takahē population, with the current population less than 450.
Young birds produced on the island will join the takahē breeding programme or will be released into the wild.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
