Trapping in the Andrews Valley

7 May 2016: George (CUTC Environmental Officer), Kerry, Annie, Michael, Alex and Ann

One fine sunny day in May, six intrepid CUTC members went off to delicately place eggs in wooden boxes and throw dead animals through the forest.

Traps checked: 73
Kills noted: 1 hedgehog (in trap #1)
Wildlife seen: Pīwakawaka, kakaruwai and korimako.
Eggs accidentally broken: Numerous

Conclusion: It was a relaxing day wandering through forests and across river flats, and we got to help out NZ’s native birds in the process.
