ground WORK and Best practice matter
Most Kiwis love the great outdoors. It’s where many of us feel at home, at peace and connected to nature.
Our New Zealand forests and native wildlife are unique and need to be looked after so they have the best chance of thriving. That’s why we need real people, on the ground doing the mahi and making important observations of our flora and fauna.
Skilled, professional contractors ensure best practice is used when it comes to trapping and hunting wild animals. It’s important that humane and ethical methods are used at all times to reduce any undue suffering and to adhere to animal welfare standards. Here we share Best Practice Guidelines for Possum Trappers and Hunters.
