Poll: Do you think we should be doing more about feral cats?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Craig Gillies puts gloves on before opening the chest freezer and pulling out the stiff frozen body of a feral cat.

DOC scientists are collecting the carcasses of feral cats to take samples, testing for toxoplasmosis disease - it’s all in the name of science, and the protection of the critically endangered Māui dolphin.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
