| Arapawa Goats are a unique feral breed that developed on Arapawa Island in the Marlborough Sounds region of New Zealand during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. |
| From the 1970s a number of these goats have been redomesticated on mainland New Zealand, and breeding groups have been established in the USA and in Great Britain. Worldwide, there are just over 300 animals currently in domestication, but they are widely scattered and their effective gene pool is very small. |
| The International Arapawa Goat Association is an informal association of people interested in the conservation and welfare of these rare animals. |
