Meet one of only 131 kākāpō left on the planet, a YouTube sensation!
You will tell your grandchildren about the day you came face to face with a living legend. Sirocco is one of only 131 kākāpō left on the planet and DOC are flying him to Wellington for a special one-month assignment: to charm Wellingtonians and help raise awareness for conservation and the Kākāpō Recovery Programme.

Sirocco found fame after attempting to mate with a BBC zoologist’s head! The clip has been viewed more than 3 million times: http://bit.ly/q135NK
"Sirocco is a great friend of mine and I'm delighted to hear that he has become a roving ambassador raising much-needed support for his fellow endangered kākāpō. I wish him well in Wellington and urge everyone to take advantage of this unique opportunity to meet him face-to-face. But do learn from my mistake - and don't let him get anywhere near your head." Mark Carwardine, BBC Zoologist.
There are a limited number of sessions available every evening after dark. You will receive an indoors introduction at our Visitor Centre, including a short film, then head out in to the sanctuary valley to come face to face with the strange and charismatic Sirocco – an encounter to remember! Your viewing time with Sirocco will last approximately 25 minutes.
