Tuataras are native to New Zealand, where they primarily inhabit the country's offshore islands and some mainland areas.

The cool, temperate climate of New Zealand suits their needs, as tuataras are ectothermic and rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature. Conservation efforts are in place to protect their habitats and populations, as they are considered a vulnerable species.
