PGF BACKS WILDLIFE SANCTUARY UPGRADE
The Provincial Growth Fund has invested $2.5 million to expand and develop the Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre in the lower North Island, Regional Economic Development Minister Shane Jones says.
The Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre at Mt Bruce will use the funding to upgrade and expand its sanctuary.
“Pūkaha has cemented itself as a successful wildlife centre and captive breeding facility, with almost 1000ha of native forest which has been returned to Rangitāne o Tararua and Rangitāne o Wairarapa. Iwi intend to gift the land to New Zealanders so it is important we invest in protecting and upgrading this incredible asset,” Shane Jones said.......
