About this Event

Have you heard of Predator Free 2050?
“Imagine an Aotearoa New Zealand where our native species are safe from extinction and thriving alongside us… That’s why Predator Free 2050 is working towards eradication of three of our most damaging predators (rats, stoats, and possums) – and even in the city we have a role to play.” 
Urban Ark works in central Auckland with people who want to make our part of Aotearoa pest free.
Come along and find out more about Predator Free 2050 and the groups that are already hard at work in Auckland.
Then we will literally get our hands dirty with a trapping workshop with Urban Ark’s Shannon Ritter in an urban park.
You will learn:
– the basics of how to set different traps
 – tips and tricks on placement, baiting, and maintenance
– where to get the equipment you need to set up traps at your own home, workplace, or local park.
We will be walking in a city park so wear good walking shoes and something you don’t mind getting dirty.

Cost: Free
