Trapping on Rangituhi

Protecting Rangituhi: Our Trapping Team in Action

We’re proud to share the incredible work being done by our small but dedicated team of trappers around Rangituhi (Colonial Knob). Their efforts are helping to protect native wildlife and restore the health of this beautiful ecosystem.

What’s happening?

• Regular checks and maintenance of predator traps across key areas.

• Targeting species like rats, stoats, and possums that threaten native birds and plants.

• Monitoring results to ensure the program is effective and sustainable.

Why it matters Every trap checked and every predator removed makes a difference. Thanks to this team, we’re seeing positive signs of recovery for native species and improved biodiversity.

Thanks to the help of our trapping supporters.
