Description
Incredible Journeys: New Zealand Wildlife on the Move takes readers on an awe-inspiring tour of some of Aotearoa’s most remarkable animal travellers. From albatross-winged toroa flying for years over the Southern Ocean to longfin tuna making a final epic swim into the Pacific, this book brings to life the mysterious and amazing journeys animals make for food, breeding or survival.
With striking illustrations and journey-maps, it sparks curiosity about why animals move the way they do and invites young explorers to imagine themselves following the route. It’s a book that turns “normal” creatures into extraordinary adventurers, and shows that even the wildest journeys are built on real science.
