Endangered species

Southern Lakes Sanctuary field rangers install a line of stoat traps in the Kea Basin. Stoats are a particular threat to indigenous alpine species including Kea, Rock Wren as well as the endangered flightless Takahe which also spend time in alpine areas. Southern Lakes Sanctuary is a consortium of regional conservation groups involved in the suppression of predators that threaten New Zealand's indigenous species.
