New Comprehensive Account of Everything about Tuatara

Alison Cree, one of the leading researchers on tuatara, has written a comprehensive account of everything we know–and would like to know–about toots. The book not only covers ecology, evolution, behavior, physiology and so on, but also the history of knowledge of tuatara as well as details on how they were perceived by the Maori. And, of course, the incredible conservation turnaround, which has led to reintroduction of tuatara to the New Zealand mainland after a half-millenium absence.

This fine volume can be purchased for a tad under US$75 plus shipping from the University of Canterbury Press.

  1. Just got back from the official book launch – lovely event. I haven’t had a chance to crack open a copy yet, but it looks like it will be a good read.
