Why is the Tuatara endangered?

Predators, mostly rats are hunting them down and eating them. Many humans not really helping protecting while some people trying very hard to help. The Kiore (a species of rats) could have been nest robbers - taking eggs and small hatchlings. Because the Tuatara are slow breeders they cannot make up for the lost eggs. There are not enough Tuatara to breed successfully. The tuatara children will have a harder time adjusting to future changes. Some humans are destroying the tuataras habitat.
