Safe return of rare stolen female huia bird

Dannevirke, Manawatu-Wanganui

Rare stuffed female huia bird which is over 100 years old was stolen from our museum on 14 July 2020. We have asked for this to be returned to date it hasn't been returned. We aren't in a financial position to offer a reward for the Huia bird's safe return so we are seeking to raise money to offer a reward for it's safe return.
