Why is wallaby eradication in NZ challenging? One answer is that possums dominate wallabies, scaring them away from baits! #NZES2024

Some interesting results from Jo Carpenter! Impacts on beech last is from sheer numbers of rats rather than prey switching as thought? #NZES2024

Sad (but interesting) to see Jo Carpenter’s assessment from 217 rat stomachs showing predation of native birds.

Consumption of native birds are consistent across mast and non-mast years
