Previously wiped out from the mainland, pakake/New Zealand sea lions have been breeding on Otago and Southland shores for over 30 years. In this talk, postgraduate researcher Hanna Maria Ravn will dive into the stories, myths, and science connecting us to a returned taonga species.
Amid both opportunities and challenges, how can we ensure a future where humans and pakake live side by side?
