About the Kiwi Birdlife Park
Rubbish tip turned refuge, the Kiwi Birdlife Park has been in operation since 1986. We are home to over 20 native species of wildlife all here on breed for release programs or in rehab due to injury.
Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes at the Park?
Check out our blog!
Each post will be written by a wildlife keeper to give you a first-hand account of what happens off-display. Every so often we will also be talking about animal husbandry and how we provide top quality care for all the park’s critters.
HOW YOU CAN HELP
We are primarily funded by visitors. All of our conservation work would not be possible without admission sales and souvenir sales.
Want to Get Involved?
Our dedicated team of volunteers play a huge part in the day to day running of the park.

Wonderful park and experience which has NZs natives all on display. The show is a big highlight and a must see. Ticket pricing is fair and the experience is great for people of all ages. We had a terrific time
