Summary: Explores the co-existence of New Zealand wildlife through one-sided friendships, pesky parasites and win-win relationships. From tuataras snuggling up to seabirds and rata trees that like to piggyback rimu trees, to worms that can take over the minds of wetas! When one part of an ecosystem disappears or fails, it can have cascading effects throughout the chain and even affect us. In Wild Buddies and Baddies, readers will discover how everything is connected, how relationships in the wild really work and our role in the environment, are humans 'baddies', 'buddies', or both?
