I believe that I have already written a review for this book ! However, I will do so again because it is a book that I could not put down. As an ardent conservationist I was thrilled by the efforts of so many who found this bird so very worth fighting for. Clearing the chosen island sanctuary, of deliberately or accidentally introduced predators; and the saga of the specific monitoring of every bird, burrow, egg, and young, made for hugely exciting and compelling reading, as eggs or young were lost, or successfully hatched and reared. The dedication of each and every one of the specialists and volunteers was, and is, remarkable, but it echoes the way that I personally feel about the Kakapo and their needs. Man has brought about their near-extinction; man, rightly, is trying to correct, to some degree, the damage caused to this wonderfully endearing bird, the so-trusting Kakapo.Read full review
