Description I was recently lucky enough to have short trip in Wellington

This was captured at Karori Sanctuary



A brief description of the reptile from www.visitzealandia.com/?specie…


"A reptile with distinctive soft spines down its backbone. Males can grow up to 60cm in length.

Known for being old – these ‘living fossils’ can live for over 100 years and date from dinosaur days!

Although they can make a croaking noise, tuatara mainly use body language to communicate."
