Little Blue Kororā (Penguins) are very adaptable. They don’t mind nesting under houses and sheds, but the problem is that they’re often not welcome in these places. Some people don’t like the noise the birds make throughout the night and their nesting sites do have a very strong smell. The other difficulty is that, in urban areas, the Kororā (Penguins) are atrisk from predators such as cats and dogs. And there’s also the chance that the little blues will be ran over by vehicles.
Luci and Emily have become more and more aware of the threats and dangers facing their favourite Kororā. In the end they decide to phone Tim, a ranger at the Department of Conservation.
