The government had opened 5 marine reserves. The marine reserve is on the West coast of the South Island. The reserve will protect a range of marine ecosystems. The 5 reserves have already been named Kahurangi, Punakaiki, Waiau Glacier Coast, Tau Parihaka and also Hautai. The reserves were made to protect our wild animals like the blue penguins.
Opinion
I think that the Government did a good job in deciding to make 5 new marine reserves.
