Gift Opportunity
Gift a Predator Trap Donation
Donate to our local biodiversity this year.
A donation will allow a predator trap to be deployed in the Ruahine Ranges
Why donate as a gift?
A predator trap deployed in the Ruahine Ranges is the perfect waste-free gift to help bring kiwi back to the area.
Rats, stoats, possums, wild cats and hedgehogs destroy bird life by attacking small chicks and eating eggs. When you donate a trap as a gift, your money will be put towards the installation of traps to kill these alien predators.
We are hoping to deploy up to 1000 traps in the Ruahine Range over 2021. Your donation will help in significantly decreasing predator numbers and increasing bird life in the area.
