Dog Island (New Zealand) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dog Island (New Zealand)
Dog Island (Motu Piu in Māori) is located in Foveaux Strait some from Bluff, New Zealand. It holds New Zealand's tallest lighthouse and since the maritime structure was fully automated in 1989, the island has been uninhabited. ==Etymology== The name of the island is thought to be descriptive, with the shape of the island appearing like a dog, and the reef on the north-west corner of the island being locally known as the Dog's Tongue. The Māori name (''motu'': island, and ''piu'': to swing) refers to Māori legend of a large pounamu turning into this island.
