What we do
The Predator Free groups provide information, equipment, knowledge, encouragement and a means of recording predator kill to help build an understanding of the distribution of predators in the environment.
Who are we?
The Predator Free groups are people linking their predator trapping skills, knowledge and data in pursuit of the 2050 Predator Free NZ goal.
