This month we've welcomed a seventh lizard species into the increasingly lively dryland ecosystem at Mokomoko Dryland Sanctuary. A population of 60 Otago green skinks from a number of sites in Oteake Conservation Park have been released into the damper, vegetated area of the main gully. We're thrilled to be establishing a protected population here, they're a stunning lizard with real attitude that because of their large size are highly vulnerable to introduced predators in the wild.
