SCIENTISTS LOOK TO MĀTAURANGA MĀORI TO SLOW BIODIVERSITY DECLINEA BioHeritage Challenge conference has heard that mātauranga Māori could hold the key to reducing the decline in New Zealand's biodiversity. Scientists and iwi representatives gathered in Wellington to work together to find new ways to protect the country's flora and fauna. The science sector is taking a leaf from the indigenous knowledge workbook, both groups uniting to preserve biodiversity for future generations. Ngāti Hine and Ngāpuhi kaumātua Tohe Ashby says, "I don't really agree with some of their views. But we [people] are connected [to the environment] thorough our lineage, because we are the youngest children of Tāne.” Iwi representatives say indigenous knowledge and genealogy hold answers mainstream science would otherwise not be able to access....... www.maoritelevision.com/news/national/scientists-look-matauranga-maori-slow-biodiversity-decline

"taking a leaf from the indigenous knowledge workbook ..." Hahahaha Maori murdered and ate the true "indigenous" so already the story is a lie. Secondly, maori had NO concept of conservation. All those species of Moas were completely wiped out by stoneage cannibal maori, and yet not one maori was bright enough to notice that these Moas were getting harder to find and kill as their numbers decreased. Until one day, on a Moa hunt, they came back empty handed. They wiped out the Huia and many other bird species. So WHAT can conservation learn from these fraudsters now claiming they have a special relationship with the earth and sea etc?!! the only thing they can teach is WHAT NOT TO DO.
