'Chasing ZERO' Predator Hunting Hui
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!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
