Aotearoa/NZ is biologically the oldest place on this planet. A Dinosaur museum!
Our native plants, insects, frogs, birds, lizards and many other creatures are the oldest in existence.
Our native frogs make no noise because they are derived from the very first frogs to ever to evolve, and with only one species, they didn’t need to differentiate using sounds! In other countries Tuatara are known only as fossils but they still live here!
It is an amazing heritage that dates back millions of years.
The whole story is linked very closely to the Geology of NZ, Gondwanaland, the ice ages, sea level changes, volcanic activity, fault lines and of course fossils!
