Working for a Predator-Free Taranaki

We work with our community to protect Taranaki's unique wildlife and plants by removing introduced predators (think possums, stoats, ferrets and rats). Our staff work closely with businesses, schools, iwi, environmental and community groups across urban, rural and public land around Taranaki Maunga.
