This week's critter creates one of the most beautiful shells in the ocean. But they're not your run-of-the-mill shell-dweller: the pupu tarakihi or knobbled argonaut (Argonautus nodosus) is one of the world's weirdest octopuses. Female knobbled argonauts create their beautiful translucent shells by excreting minerals out of two enlarged tentacles. They are the only creature in the world that makes a shell out of their own arms. The shells are both a nursery for their eggs and young and a place to tuck away as they drift on the ocean surface.

On Our Changing World, Claire Concannon heads to Waikereru Ecosanctuary, a privately owned conservation project on the lands of Professor Dame Anne Salmond. New Zealander of the year in 2013, she's most widely known for her writings and work as a Professor of Maori studies at the University of Auckland. But when she and her husband bought land a couple of kilometres outside Gisborne twenty-five years ago, it was the start of their conservation journey. Today the ecosanctuary encompasses an education space for school groups, a harakeke collection, a living library of rare local plants called the 1769 seed archive, a small patch of bush open to the public called Longbush Reserve and one hundred hectares of steep-sided hills. When they first bought the land, these hills were bare. Dame Anne Salmond explains to Claire Concannon how they've gone about revegetating them, including recruiting the local manu to help.
