The Waihora Ellesmere Trust and the Department of Conservation are hosting a Predator Free Trapping Workshop.

Come and hear from a number of speakers and talk to the experts regarding trapping mammalian predators. There will be displays and information on a number of traps.

The Waihora Ellemere Trust with the support of the Department of Conservation are beginning a predator control program at Yarrs Flat Wildlife reserve on the shores of Te Waihora / Lake Ellesmere. The reserve is an outstanding area for wetland birds including migratory species. The Trust is looking to build a team of volunteers to service the traps.
