New Zealand has among the highest proportions of threatened or at-risk species in the world, and around 25 million native birds are killed by introduced predators every year. But it's not all bad news - when predators are removed or controlled, nature bounces back fast. We’ve already seen it happening in many parts of the country!
People all over Aotearoa are doing their bit - setting traps in their backyards, planting natives, volunteering, or donating. You can too! Backyard trapping is one example of effective individual action.
What do you think? Can we reach our Predator Free target in 2050?

After spotting Go Eco’s food rescue ad for homeowners with excess produce, she signed up — and before long volunteers were in her backyard hauling out crates of grapefruit, lemons, oranges and mandarins. All up? More than 240kg of citrus.
