Ngā Manu speaker Craig Pritchard this Saturday
As the population of vultures across SEA was declining, in 2006, Nepal took an innovative step to bring vultures back from the brink of extinction.
While working for the Zoological Society of London Craig Pritchard was asked to head to Chitwan, Nepal to be part of a team led by SAVE (Saving Asia's Vultures from Extinction).
Craig is talking about his experience at Nga Manu Nature Reserve this Saturday, where he will be able to answer questions so we can think about how we could apply his learnings to our own conservation projects.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
