E ai ki te Māori he hononga ita kei waenganui i te tangata me te ngahere – inarā nā te atua nā Tāne te tangata me te ngahere i auaha. He wāhi mīharo te ngahere, ko te mokomoko, te manu, aha atu, ngā kaitiaki. Ko te ngahere te whakaruruhau, te pātaka kai a te Māori. Ka noho te ngahere me ngā rākau, ngā tipu hei kai, hei rongoā, hei rauemi hanga whare, raranga kākahu hoki.
