Save our Snails

Friday 27th July 2012–Sunday 31st March 2013

Powelliphanta are the giant endemic land snails found mainly in our region, Te Tau Ihu.

These spectacular, carnivorous land snails reach both their maximum size and numbers of species here.

These snails are endangered and in rapid decline and this exhibition will highlight these problems and engender public support and advocacy for their conservation.
