We had two wonderful speakers last week. First Leigh Stevens told us bout the different habitats for New Zealand native creatures. Leigh told us about how the worst thing for our creatures was the way we have been destroying habitats for our roads, houses and farms. He showed us some photos of healthy habitats .


The next day Bruce Thomas talked to us about getting rid of the rats on New Zealand Islands. He told us that at first no one believed it would ever be possible to do that and how New Zealanders were the first in the world to manage it. Bruce was in the team that got rid of all the rats on Breaksea Island and that was the WORLD FIRST! He showed us some of his traps that people are using to create inland Islands.
