Mt Cook Daylight Canvas
Mt Cook Daylight Canvas
Description : The Mount Cook Daylight is a chance to share with those visiting you, your love of New Zealand and its wildlife. Mount Cook / Aoraki is the tallest mountain in New Zealand and critical habitat to our native Kea the worlds only Alpine Parrot.
Mount Cook is a critical habitat for Kea. Here they face threats from human conflict, introduced predators and lead poisoning. A study in 2012 indicated that their natural curiosity is leading them consume lead from roofs at elevated rates causing heavy declines in the local population. Given only five thousand or so Kea remain this is a deeply concerning trend.
Thankfully some ambitious conservation projects have been launched to save the kea. Including the predator free Mackenzie basin project. You can learn about the revolutionary work they're doing with drones here.
This is a great conversation tool as it invites conversations from those who see the image, about Mount Cook and it's importance to New Zealand. You can also join our social Media community where we regularly post updates about the locations and animals featured in your canvas.
