Relationship with other organisms.

Tuataras are not friendly with rats. As rats are one of the main reasons as to why they are endangered, Tuataras do not enjoy others company. In fact things used to be so bad in where they used to live in the mainland , that the tuatara had to leave and live in several offshore islands. Tuataras spend most of their life in their burrows and only hunt at night to avoid predators. Tuataras are very sensitive creatures and are not created to fight. This is a big problem especially since tuataras are victims of othr animals.
