'Chasing ZERO' Predator Hunting Hui

The Team from Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre

Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre invites you to come and learn tips, trapping tricks and predator insights from their resident trapping expert - John Bissell.

This is an opportunity for trappers or those interested in trapping - beginners or experts - to spend a day with John and learn what actually works. Much of his advice you won’t find in a manual. It’s built up over his 30+ years of experience “out there doing it”.

It is also a chance for trappers to get answers to those burning questions that will improve trapping skills, knowledge, and results across an array of target species such as mice, rats, stoats and ferrets.

John's delivery style is an active one and he promises that it won’t be boring!

Some Choice News!

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!
