Animal Biology
21/02/10 7:13 PM

I'm just wondering if anyone on the course has any good suggestions on sites relating to the Animal Biology section?

Whilst I'm still not 100% complete on the plant biology section, I thought I would give my brain a rest on plants and move onto native birds.

I'm working on weka, Ruru/Morepork, Falcon & Kereru.. I'm not sure how much research there is out there on these animals, but they're abundant up here in Punakaiki.

Any help would be appreciated, and it's not a bad way to start generating some conversation between us all.

Cheers,

Sam
p.s. I'm working for Conservation Volunteers in Punakaiki (big replanting program among other things), it'd be good to hear all your backgrounds.
