Zealandia Te Māra a Tāne is a groundbreaking wildlife reserve in Wellington, New Zealand, distinguished as the world’s first fully fenced urban eco-sanctuary. This dedicated conservation area focuses on an ambitious 500-year vision to restore the local valley’s forest and freshwater ecosystems to their original, pre-human state. By providing a safe haven free from introduced predators, it allows rare native species to flourish once again within a bustling city environment.
