Zealandia eco sanctuary

Zealandia is New Zealand's first predator-proof fenced ecosanctuary and is located in the heart of Wellington. Just a few minutes from the hustle and bustle of the capital, you can immerse yourself in native bush that is teeming with New Zealand's rare and endangered species. Some have even increased in abundance over the fence in Wellington and its surrounds, as predator control efforts are starting to have a positive impact.
