'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 NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
