They aren't under NZ rule, but they are a NZ protectorate. There's practically no crime, I felt wonderfully safe there as a woman traveling alone. There are virtually no poisonous insects or reptiles on land. In the lagoon, watch out for stonefish, which are very well camoflaged. I'd venture to guess the most dangerous animal around is probably the occasional tourist driving too fast on the wrong side of the road.

Since you found your way to VT, you can find out all sorts of more specific useful info on the Cooks by looking at some of the member pages, and there are some really good ones to explore:

And then there's Google...
