Saving threatened species
dwindling populations
WWF is working with a community on Mitiaro, one of the Cook Islands, to manage their dwindling coconut crab populations. Assistance is also being provided to the island of Atiu for the re-introduction of a bird that became extinct on that island, the Red Lorikeet. Small grants have also been provided for the islands of Palmerston and Rakahanga to assist with turtle conservation activities.
