Dolphin harbour It’s official

Date: 1/8/2005

The Manuaku Harbour is part of the rare Maui’s dolphins natural habitat. Set netting has been banned around the harbour mouth since 2003 in a bid to protect the endangered species. Marine mammal researcher Michael Richlen says detectors have picked up Maui’s dolphins 12 times within the harbour. Maui’s is New Zealand’s rarest dolphin.
