All about a Taniwha
Taniwha are supernatural creatures in
Maori tradition, similar to serpents and
dragons in other cultures. They were said
to hide in the ocean, rivers, lakes or caves.
Some Taniwha would eat and kill people, or
kidnap women
Taniwha were either male or female. They
usually lived in or near the water lakes,
rivers or the sea. They hid in lairs known
as ruaTaniwha which could be deep pools,
caves, or dangerous waterways areas that
people avoided.
