Renewed appeal for missing Aydan and his grey ute

The Team from Waikato Police

Police are urging for sightings of a grey ute in relation to Aydan, 39, who went missing over eight weeks ago.

Last seen in Chartwell, Hamilton on Sunday 17 August, Aydan was believed to be driving his 2016 grey Mazda ute, registration QYA209.

Detective Sergeant Jonathan Carter said both Aydan's family, and police, are hoping for someone to come forward with information about Aydan’s grey Mazda ute.

“Have you seen a grey ute anywhere? Perhaps you’ve noticed it hasn’t moved? If you've noticed a grey Mazda ute somewhere across the region, we would like to hear from you,” says Detective Sergeant Jonathan Carter.

Police and family have serious concerns for Aydan's wellbeing.

If you have any information, please contact Police via 105, either over the phone or online, referencing file number 250819/5160.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
