Yes, some of the popular reef dive sites in New Zealand are Poor Knight's Island, Club Rocks at White Island, and Liason's Reef at White Island. There are some artificial reefs built at shipwreck sites. An example of this is the Tui, which is sunken off of the Tutukaka Coast.
Yes they do. But they are so well fed that the never bother swimmers or divers.
As far as I know, New Zealand has no coral reefs, such as the Great Barrier Reef of Australia.
But corals are found in the fiords of Fiordland.
Yes only at butterfly creek in Auckland and maybe at some other wild life parks but non in the wild
Yes, there are many.
yes
no
It depends on the cave. Since many caves are limestone (water carves it nicely), you usually find limestone. But granite is common in New Hampshire & Vermont.
None. We don't have any in New Zealand.
New Zealand is in the southern hemisphere. It is not actually part of any continent, but it is in the region (not continent) of New Zealand.
Yes, there are homeless people in almost every country; even New Zealand.

Caves can be found all around the world, typically in areas with limestone, granite, or volcanic rock formations. They can be found in various environments, including mountains, deserts, and coastal regions. Some famous cave systems are located in places like Kentucky (USA), Mexico, Malaysia, and France.
I think I know what you mean.The vast majority of the world's caves are formed in limestone by water dissolving the calcium carbonate that is the rock's main constituent. As for "type", well, almost any "type" by age or source of limestone physically capable of supporting itself above the developing void. Caves will also form in marble (metamorphosed limestone) and in gypsum (calcium sulphate), in the same way.So the limestone is not "often found in caves" - except as boulders that fallen from the roof, or re-precipitated as calcite stalactites etc - but is literally all around almost all caves!More to the point perhaps is the combination of factors that encourage or discourage caves to form in a given limestone area, and that is far more complex.
Same as in any caves of the same types anywhere in the world, which in karst caves is dissolution of the host limestone by weakly-acidic ground-water.
Too vague a question. WHICH plateau? There are any number of plateaux around the world! If it's a limestone plateau then any caves in it will be karst caves - though there may also be mass-movement caves (a type of landslip feature) behind cliffs or very steep slopes forming the plateau edge.
Any particular ones? You've used the definite article. Most caves are in limestone uplands so they are the places to search.
Yes, it does+++ But in patches of limestone on the fringes of Dartmoor, not on the granite massif itself (apart from any small rock shelters that may exist).
Stalactites are the formations that grow downward from the top of caves in national parks like Caves National Park. They are created by mineral deposits left behind by dripping water.
Caves don't conform to standard lengths. You'd have to find a cavers' guide-book or cave-index to find information like that. As for the Loire valley, I don't know if it has any natural caves (though it is in limestone), but it seems to be noted for artificial caves dug to create homes.
New Zealand does not have any native Quercus (oak) species.
None. We don't have any in New Zealand.
