Roadside Stories: Otago Peninsula wildlife

Abundant wildlife has long drawn people to the Otago Peninsula – though today’s visitors are more likely to be appreciating live penguins, seals, albatrosses and sea lions, rather than hunting birds for their meat and feathers, or whales for their oil.

Listen to a Roadside Story about the Otago Peninsula. Roadside Stories is a series of audio guides to places around New Zealand.
