Taranaki’s urban residents are embracing predator control in backyards, public parks and reserves after a call to action to protect local biodiversity. Urban residents who want to protect their town or city’s unique wildlife and native plants, and remove the threat rats, possums and stoats pose to our native biodiversity, economy and lifestyles, are encouraged to trap in their backyard. As part of the Towards Predator-Free Taranaki – Taranaki Taku Tūranga project they can buy a subsidised box-tunnel rat trap for their backyard that is child and pet-safe for just $20. They are available from these retailers or from many local schools, who are selling the traps as fundraisers. Subsidised Trapinator possum traps are also available for $50, get in touch with us if you'd like one. The urban project began in New Plymouth and has expanded into other towns, with the plan to install trapping networks in all the region’s urban areas over the duration of the project. In some areas, keen local residents started backyard trapping before the project officially rolled out in their towns. Towards Predator-Free Taranaki has been delighted to support these community-led initiatives. Schools, community champions and volunteers are taking a lead role in their area’s trapping, helping co-ordinate efforts, or volunteering to monitor traps in nearby public parks and reserves. The trapping network is ever-expanding, with more than 12,000 traps in backyards and public parks and reserves across the region. The goal is to get one in five households trapping and recording catches on the Trap.NZ website or app. Recording catches - or the lack of them – on Trap.NZ helps Towards Predator-Free Taranaki monitor predator-control across the region. There is an active Towards Predator-Free Taranaki Facebook page where urban trappers are encouraged to share tips, experiences and knowledge. This is also a great way to find out what’s happening with biodiversity efforts in your area and how you can help. The success of Towards Predator-Free Taranaki will largely depend on the continued efforts and goodwill of both urban and rural residents, caring for their environment and taking Taranaki forward. #e3566{display:none;} iframe {width: 80% !important; height: 550px;} #e2370{display:none;}@media screen and (min-width: 1080px){.pf-content p{width:850px;}.pf-content h1, .pf-content h2, .pf-content h3, .pf-content h4,{width:850px;}.pf-content ul{width:850px;}.pf-content .center iframe{width:850px !important;height:478px !important;}.pf-content .right.image{float:right;margin-left:25px;}.pf-content .right .caption{float:right;width:100%;}.pf-content .captionImage.right{float:right;}#RelatedPages, #SocialMediaBlock{width:850px;}#tpft-2-col{width:850px;}#tpft-2-col p{width:100%;}.pf-content ol{width:850px;}} #e2372{display:none;}.pf-container{padding-top: 3.76471rem;}div#e2373 {background-color: #fff;background-image: url(/resources/themes/trc/images/predator-free/grey-background.svg);padding: 4rem 0rem;margin:0;}#e2373 .block{margin-bottom:2rem;}#e2373 .content{margin-left:0 !important;} @media screen and (min-width: 922px){#predator-free-elements .block .content{margin-left:30%;}}#e2371{display:none;}#e2374, #e2400{margin-top:3rem;} What is Trap.NZ? If you’re trapping at home, register with the online database Trap.NZ, via its website or app. Then record all your catches and also your trap checks (even when nothing has been caught). This makes Trap.NZ a source of valuable data tracking the region’s efforts and identifying gaps.

Taranaki tangata tūtahi ki te uru

Broader understanding of the statement:
In this vision statement, ‘Taranaki’ refers to the people, the mountain, the land and the region. The words ‘tūtahi’ refers to standing together, as one people, cohesively for a specific

The DWI consents currently held by the Company authorise the
injection of heated water, including produced water, for the purpose of
water flooding, to enhance oil and gas production within the Kauri and
Manutahi reservoirs.
A schematic representation of injection wells for both waste discharge
and enhanced oil recovery is presented in Figure 1.

Our native flora and fauna is a taonga that does much to define us as a nation. It’s also under
