About the event
Spring is an important time to keep predator control efforts going. As stoats and other predators become more active, the work happening in backyards, reserves and community trapping networks makes a real difference. The growing number of native birds and other taonga species being seen across our region is a result of communities getting involved and putting in the mahi.
