Nature up close at Canterbury Museum

Canterbury Museum

Erlend Haarberg snapped this pair of mountain hares scrapping over food one night in Norway. His arresting image is on display now at Canterbury Museum alongside almost 100 others as part of the exhibition ‘Wildlife Photographer of the Year’.

The photographs, which are on loan from London’s Natural History Museum, showcase the incredible diversity of the natural world and tell important conservation stories. ‘Wildlife Photographer of the Year’ is free to visit, and it’s on until 18 November. Find out more!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
