Whakarāpopototanga:

Ka taea e te nui o te whenua kore manaaki e tūtakihia ana e ngā manu heke te pā nui ki ngā rautaki hekenga me tō rātou whanaketanga, me te awe hoki i te huarahi e whakawhanake ai tātou i ā tātou urupare tiaki ara rere o nāianei hei tiaki i a rātou. I whakamahia e mātou ngā raraunga telemetry mai i te 44 ngā momo manu wai whānau nui e whā o te Arctic (e rua ngā kūaka, he manu wīhi, he manu karawaka kotahi) kua tohua hei whakaatu mō te wā tuatahi ka rere tonu ēnei manu i runga i te ngahere taiga o te Rawhiti Tawhiti, ahakoa ō rātou momo taiao me ngā ara hekenga rerekē. Ko te tikanga o tēnei he korenga o ngā nohoanga whakakī hinu taiga e tika ana mō ēnei manene tawhiti. E whakaatu ana ēnei hua i te hiranga nui o ngā nohoanga whakatā puna ki te raki-mā-rāwhiti o Haina me ngā rohe Arctic i mua i te wehenga i te ngahuru kia taea ai e ngā manu te whakakore i tēnei koiora kore manaaki, e whakaū ana i te hiahia mō te tiaki wāhi tika hei tiaki i ēnei taupori puta noa i tō rātou huringa ā-tau.
