Aubrey Temara, of Tuhoe in the eastern Bay of Plenty, says a rahui was declared many years ago because of a decline in kereru numbers, not helped by humans taking the birds for food.

That, and working in with local iwi to put rahui (bans) on kereru harvesting, has led to an increase in the bird's numbers.

By which I mean, it brings up a lot of political issues (many of which were missed in the movie) - the handing on of tradition and te reo by the establishment of wananga and kohonga reo, land disputes, the Springbok Tour, nuclear testing in the Pacific, hui (protest walks/gatherings), the place of women on the marae/in tapu proceedings, the reestablishment of fishing rahui for management and care of the ocean, and probably more things I am missing.

"I think there is a clear understanding of what rahui means, but there is less understanding of what the actual law is, pertaining to harvesting native birds.

It is an issue - we rely on the goodwill of our people to observe the rahui and not go anywhere near the birds. "
