The Pupu Rangi Nature Sanctuary is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the protection of New Zealand’s native flora and fauna. Our goal is to protect and extend a vibrant ecosystem while educating others on the importance of conservation. We view ourselves as partners with our volunteers, visitors, community, and the environment. We are not on the tourist maps and we prefer to focus on the conservation and education aspect of our work rather than on mass tourism. We host a small group of international volunteers that together learn, work, and explore this unique environment. The Pupu Rangi Nature Sanctuary is located 250km from a crowded city, 50km from the closest supermarket, 2km from the next door neighbour, and at an arm's length from the Milky Way. In our world, seeing two cars in a day is a traffic jam and being able to live in the middle of the forest is the ultimate lifestyle. The Pupu Rangi Nature Sanctuary is currently collaborating with the following organizations: - Department of Conservation (DOC) - Northland Regional Council - Kiwi Coast - Kiwis for Kiwi The Department of Conservation and the Pupu Rangi Nature Sanctuary have signed a five year Management Agreement that formalizes the excellent collaboration between the two organizations. Our volunteers are performing a number of biodiversity conservation tasks contributing to the protection of the Trounson Kauri Park. During the 2016 season, our volunteers have contributed over 900 hours of effort to the Trounson Kauri Park conservation efforts. We are also excited to be able to work in another DOC-managed forest in which the rare kokako lives.
