Trakka Tunnels indicating predator species in the Wetlands 12th May

Laying first set of trakka tunnel 
cards on the 11th May. 

The trakka tunnels were kindly supplied by Steve Henderson, 

Biosecurity Officer for Northland Regional Council.

Here, Tayla pins one of the tunnels in place.

Mrs Tucker helped us put a bit of peanut butter
in the middle of the ink pad.

Holly holds a card with a clear set of rat prints the next day.

The rats living in the Wetlands
have a ferocious appetite, eating
the peanut butter and the cardboard on
this card that Chelsea is holding.

We used photos from the Trakka tunnel
website to identify which species of predators 
we have in our wetlands.
