Video: Guardians of the Sea Kaikōura is one of New Zealand’s most extraordinary coastal towns. Just offshore, a deep underwater canyon fuels a rich marine ecosystem where whales, orca, dusky dolphins, and seabirds thrive. But like many coastal ecosystems around the world, Kaikōura’s marine environment has faced growing pressure. This film explores how a community came together to protect their local marine environment. Through collaboration between indigenous knowledge, science, government, and industry, locals are reshaping how this remarkable environment is cared for. https://youtu.be/mfFpW4gEFEw?si=NnnmqX1z-hwT13XG
