Takahē

Ko te Takahē he manu ngahere nō Aotearoa. He manu nō te ngahere, kaore e rere. Kei Te Wai-pounamu anake. He rite, he nui ake i te pūkeko.
Ko te ingoa pūtaiao ko Porphyrio hochstetteri. I ngā wā o mua he Takahē anō nō Te Ika-a-Māui; kua ngaro atu kē; engari, i ngā tau kua pahure ake nei, kua mauria atu ētahi Takahē ki Tiritiri-matangi, he motu e tata ana ki Tāmaki-makau-rau, ki Maungatautari i te Waikato, hei wāhi noho pai mō ēnei manu mōrehu.
