Guardians of the Sea

Image result for taniwha
One of the largest rivers in New Zealand is called the Waikato River. It is found in the central part of the North Island of New Zealand. The river was given the name Waikato by a group of men and women from the Tainui iwi who, legend has it, travelled down the Waikato years ago and settled in the area. According to Maori legend the Waikato River has hundreds of taniwha living in it, guarding the sea. 

Unfortunately, the Waikato River has become polluted in recent years and is sometimes closed to the public. This is very upsetting for many people especially for those who believe that taniwha live in the river.

In the river they have spotted mysterious bubbles
What do I think it is?
I think it may be those things that are in the ponds like the tubes that blow water threw...People might think it is a taniwha but??? maybe not
