Manukura was born on 1 May. As far as we know he is the first white kiwi born in captivity.
He is certainly the first born at Pukaha.
He was named by local iwi Rangitane o Wairarapa.
Elders from the iwi saw the chick as a tohu (sign) of new beginnings and so has blessed him with this lovely name.
Translated it means - of chiefly status.
Manukura is not an albino but the rare offspring off North Island brown kiwi that were transferred from Little Barrier Island to Pukaha in May last year.
