He ika motuhake tēnei ki Aotearoa. He onge, he kaha ki te huna, me uaua kē ka kitea. He poto te kauae o te ika nei, ā, e whakapae ana ngā kaipūtaiao, i puta ai tēnā hei waku i ngā ngārara nohowai i ngā toka.
Whakaputa hua ai ngā kōkopu katoa ki ngā rau me ngā otaota i runga ake i ngā kōawa i te tai pari. Ka rewa ngā torongū kua paopao mai ki te moana, ka noho, ka tupu ki reira i te hōtoke. Ka hoki mai ki uta hei inanga i te kōanga. Heoi anō, e āhei ana hoki ngā momo kōkopu katoa ki te noho ki roto i te wai māori anahe me te whakatutuki i te huringa ā-oranga, e kīia ana tēnei, ko te noho pūroto. I tēnei wā, kotahi anahe te rāngai kōkopu kauaepoto noho pūroto kua kitea (ki Mangatāwhiri), engari, mō ngā momo pēnei i te kōkopu nui, i te kōkopu taiwhara me te kōaro, he maha ngā momo noho pūroto puta noa i te motu.
