The Sign of the Takahe was the remaining house to be built.

Such results pose problems regarding the maintenance of genetic diversity and thus Takahe survival in the long term.

As we were being given an introductory talk by a warden about not smoking or feeding the birds, a takahe sauntered past.

The environmental variations before the European settlement were not suitable for Takahe, and exterminated almost all of them.

Perhaps a population study on the Bermuda cahow, or the New Zealand takahe.

Supporters: On either side a Takahe proper.

A Takahe has been recorded feeding on a paradise duckling at Zealandia.

Work started on the Hills section early the following year and within a few months had reached the terminus at the Sign of the Takahe.

Interventionists then sought to relocate the Takahe "island sanctuaries" and breed them in captivity.

Huge conservation efforts are being made to save the takahe, kakapo, mohua, kokako and the kiwi.

Her poetry has appeared in numerous literary journals such as Takahe, Sport and Turbine.

For the breeding programme, they incubate takahe and kiwi eggs to protect chicks and thus give them the chance to become adult.

Its plumage was white, sometimes with a few blue feathers, and it was probably flightless, like its other close relative the Takahe.

In January 2011 two Takahe were released in Zealandia, Wellington.

New Zealand has more species of flightless birds (including the kiwis, several species of penguins, and the takahe) than any other country.

Since the caves lie in the Murchison Mountains (where the endangered takahe were rediscovered), and are themselves very fragile, access is restricted.

Takahe rediscovered in the Murchison Mountains in Fiordland.

The Sign of the Takahe is today a restaurant and function centre built in the style of an English Manor House.

Conservationists noticed the threat deer posed to Takahe survival and the national park now implements deer control by hunting by helicopter.

The Supporters are the creatures on either side of the shield and in this case are Takahe birds depicted in their natural colours ("proper.")

The cave has been formed by the Tunnel Burn, which drains from Lake Orbell in the Takahe valley.

Thus increasing translocation rates of Takahe from the New Zealand mainland onto island sanctuaries may not be effective unless "surplus birds are removed".

Many species of bird life are also found locally, notably the endangered Takahe which can be found at the Fiordland Wildlife Park.
