Why it matters
The blue duck, or whio, is an extraordinary species endemic to the fast-flowing rivers of New Zealand’s North and South Islands. Prized by naturalists for their unique evolutionary adaptations to high-energy mountain streams, these birds serve as a critical indicator species for the health of pristine, high-altitude ecosystems.
