Sobre
O pernilongo-da-nova-zelândia, conhecido localmente como 'pied stilt', é uma ave pernalta com plumagem branca e negra e longas patas cor-de-rosa. Esta espécie endémica nidifica em zonas húmidas, rios e águas costeiras. Alimenta-se de invertebrados aquáticos. Os mamíferos introduzidos como as doninhas e os arminhos ameaçam os ninhos. Os programas de controlo de predadores têm sido cruciais para a sobrevivência desta espécie em perigo crítico.
