Tanekaha CPCA

The key objective of this CPCA is to reduce mammalian predators to increase and maintain North Island Brown Kiwi (Apteryx mantelli) survival within the project area. The area surrounding this CPCA has an extremely high kiwi population which is currently managed through Department of Conservation trapping and occasional poisoning programmes. Kiwi will continue to expand into surrounding areas which need to have some form of predator control present. A secondary objective is to increase and enhance native biodiversity through poisoning rodents and possums within the CPCA.
