Help save the Rarotongan kakarori
GOING FOR A HOLIDAY in Rarotonga? Then you could help save the endangered kakarori.
The Cook Islands Conservation Service needs volunteers for their programme to save this endangered bird. The prebreeding survey is in August, and nest protection work will run from September to January. The kakarori is an endemic
flyercatcher whose population has been reduced to a few dozen. Tereapo and Eddie who run the programme need volunteers for at least a week at a time. The service runs on a shoestring and they cannot offer transport or accommodation. But they will give you an experience of a lifetime in the Rarotongan forests. Please contact the service (Box 371, Rarotonga; phone 21256) before you go so they can fit you into their programme.
