Blog post for Quail island


  1. What does the name Otamahua mean? Quail Island  
  2. Where did the name Quail Island come from? It comes from when the settlers came there were a bunch of quails on it fleeing from them.
  3. How big is the island? Approximately 80 Hectares
  4. How was the island created? At first, the island was just a bump in the water and when the sea levels lowered it came out of the water and became an island.
  5. What wildlife is present on the island - native/introduced? Karoro, Tarapunga, Korora, Terns, Shags, Oystercatchers, Piwakawaka, Iroriro, Banks Peninsula tree weta have recently been transferred to the island - you may see custom-built weta homes attached to the trunks of manuka trees. On warm summer days you’re likely to spot resident lizards like geckos and skinks.   
    The Ōtamahua/Quail Island Ecological Restoration Trust and DOC are working to remove pests, establish native vegetation and eventually re-introduce native wildlife. 
  6. Mahinga kai, food gathering was an important activity for maori. what food did they gather from Otamahua? - Māori knew Quail Island as Ōtamahua, the 'place to gather sea-bird eggs'.
  7. how have introduced species (animals/birds/insects) damaged the environment?  • Fire is a real danger – do not take matches or cigarette lighters. • Be careful with the bags you take on the island.. Check them for unwanted stowaways like rodents. • Take all your rubbish home. • Take care when walking. Watch out for holes and tree roots and be cautious when walking
