They will be released by Willowbank park staff into a renovated enclosure. "Their playfulness makes them a popular resident in our reserve and we can’t wait to showcase them to our visitors." Established 27 years ago by Michael Willis and Kathy Rangiwananga, Willowbank Wildlife Reserve is still under the same ownership and has grown to be one of Christchurch’s major attractions.
