Our first note on the kiore maori or native rat is met with in Captain Cook's account of his sojourn at Tolaga Bay when on his first voyage. Of quadrupeds he remarks that they saw only dogs and rats, and these were very scarce..he mouse is usually called kiore by the Maori, but they did not see this creature, apparently, until after the European rat had arrived. On the east coast it was often called the kiore teoteo or small kiore.
