Cobble, Chesterfield skinks cared for at Auckland Zoo

In two special climate-controlled locations, tucked away from visitor-facing areas, Auckland Zoo is currently caring for the world's entire population of cobble skinks as well as a quarter of the population of 'Kapitia' also known as Chesterfield skinks. Ectotherm keeper Sarah Brill has been carrying out novel research into the dietary habits of these two rare New Zealand skink species. Nathan Rarere spoke with Sarah who told him all about her research and how it's carried out.
