In this special edition of the podcast Stephen is in Orkney to hear about work to protect its special, native wildlife.Orkney has its own native Vole species and also hosts globally important populations of seabirds, waders and other species. But that wildlife is under threat from an invasive predator, the Stoat. RSPB Scotland is part of a groundbreaking project that has set out to eradicate Stoats and protect native wildlife. Stephen hears from those involved in trapping, monitoring and biosecurity as part of this enormous undertaking.The Orkney Native Wildlife Project is a partnership between RSPB Scotland, NatureScot and Orkney Islands Council with generous support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and EU LIFE (LIFE17 UK/NAT/000557) as well as in kind and financial contributions from partners. The mop-up methodology trial was supported by the Scottish Government's Nature Restoration Fund, managed by NatureScot.
I clearly remember Maggie Barry, John Key and Nick Smith, Steven Joyce and Nathan Guy launching Predator-Free NZ in July 2016, 7 years ago! This was a big gig; and it's still going. If you think about it, it's a huge task and incredibly collaborative, with scientists, DOC and heaps of New Zealand Volunteer trappers. Make no mistake, the army of ordinary kiwis and backyard engineers are really contributing to the reduction of exotic pests in our ecosystems. I can see the improvements in our biodiversity simply by looking from my window on the Port Hills in Christchurch! The most important predators we are targeting are mice, rats, stoats, ferrets, weasels, Possums, hedgehogs and – oh yes – feral cats! Add domestic dogs kept off lead in kiwi habitat and you've got the line-up we're aiming for. I realise this is a little bit more than the original target line-up, but I have my own reasons for including mice, hedgehogs and uncontrolled dogs. Mice: they're everywhere and actually (kind-of) do the ecological job of a tree weta. Mice are predominantly seed and nuts eaters. Walnuts, hazelnuts, etc. Fatty materials allows them to successfully overwinter in your garden. They also eat a heap of insects and they are important food for rats! (Mice keep rat numbers up) Simple mouse traps are a great idea around the house – cheap traps, baited with peanut butter or Nutella or hazelnut spread. Shelled walnuts work well too. Contrary to popular belief they don't really go for cheese! I have them all around my house and even in the ceiling. I set my traps near the wall – that's where they run to keep “out-of-sight”. Rats do a lot of damage to birds and lizards. They raid nests and eggs. Most people are not aware that they also go for juicy, large insects (weta and other large, native critters). Rat traps are a large version of mouse traps and they can be used on their own around the house, or inside a wooden tunnel, which gives the rat some cover and shelter as it explores the smell of the delicious bait in the trap. Great baits are peanut butter and Nutella, as well as fish and moldy cheese. One thing that rats are keen on is a trajectory that leaves them unnoticed. Traps near a wall or along a fence line seem to be working best. Make sure you don't “contaminate” the lure with your bare hands – good idea to wear gloves so the rat doesn't… well… smell a rat (I mean a human!!). Stoats are a lot trickier again – they really will avoid open spaces. And they are clever. You'll also need a much heavier artillery (trap) than rats, as stoats are able to survive the smack of a rat trap; they also have the ability to escape from these traps by wriggling out. A “DOC 200” is the heavy duty trap to use here. These metal traps are usually built inside a wooden box with attractive lures (salted rabbit meat or fresh rabbit cuts, eggs, and believe it or not: mayonnaise!). Eggs are often a visual attractant to these mustelids. I have always been disappointed by the clever stoat's ability to avoid my traps. I rarely trap these buggers. Stoats can kill young kiwi (up to 800 gram body-weight) and they are ferocious hunters. DOC 200 stoat trap. Photo / Supplied Ferrets are another step up in the predator game – they'll kill adult kiwi and large prey; you won't find them in urban areas – they are creatures of the farm and forest edges. They also require some serious knowledge to trap, plus an even heavier gauge of trap. Just so you know: I am a member of the stoat and ferret conservation society… In the Netherlands! That's where they are native and that's where they are in ecological trouble due to the declining populations – how ironic! I actually used to have a pet ferret in Holland – wonderful animals! Possums are the last species I'll mention in this segment. We have about 70 million of them in our forests and gardens. They mainly feed on fruits, shoots, and leaves: 21,000 tonnes each night, which is about the same as the weight of the sky tower. They alter the composition of our native forests. Possums get protein from eating birds (and nestlings). Possums really need a Timms Trap, baited with apple, cinnamon and such delights. I often use flour and icing sugar mix and smear that on the tree near the trap – it really “lures them in” Timms Trap. Photo / Supplied The modern form of the old Timms Trap is the Flipping Timmy. This trap can be attached to a tree trunk, so the possum climbs up and ends up in the trap Great websites exist on trapping the pests; have a look and join the team of New Zealanders keeping their gardens and local reserves and parks predator free.

This week burrow in to this episode with DATA about Weasels
Ranger Evan Smith of New Zealand's Fiordland National Park is, according to one visitor, “a bit of a legend.” Since 2011, Ranger Smith has raised money to help protect native birds from stoats, a kind of weasel introduced from Europe. When he began working on the Routeburn Track hiking trail 20 years ago, he didn't see or hear many birds. His nightly “hut talks” has helped the project raise $200,000 for stoat control. And summer by summer, the park sees more bird life along the trails.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

2020 is not just a leap year, but also a Mast Year. That means a lot of trees are flowering all at the same time, making a bumper crop of food for mice. And those mice become great prey species for rats who will chew through the millions of mice and really boost their own numbers enormously.That means: rat plagues in late autumn/winter. Not just in the suburbs, but also in the New Zealand forests and especially in the South Island and our National and Regional parks. These rats are fabulous food for stoats. Stoats are very clever killing machines and superb predators of everything that lives and breathes – rats simply don’t stand a chance with stoats.In late winter/early spring, when the mice have consume all the fallen seeds and fruit and rats have eaten most of the mice and stoats have gobbled up a heap of rats you end up with heaps of stoats, and some very fat rats and they are all looking around for something to eat, right at the time when our native birds are starting to build nests.Our birds don’t stand a chance at all! Even “armed” birds such as kaka and kea will fall prey. So it's time to get your traps ready. Catch as many mice as you can right now, peanut butter and Nutella are great attractants. Catch rats with Victor traps and DOC 150s and DOC 200s, with fresh rabbit meat or erayz blocks and egg in the box. For ferrets, DOC 250s are the recommended traps. Bait with fresh meat; rabbit, chicken or fish. Grab a possum trap, Tim's Traps are probably easiest to use, and bait with apple and cinnamon. There are many different attractants for the various target species.More Info: DOC website or https://predatorfreenz.org/LISTEN TO AUDIO ABOVE

One of our most engaging mustelids, the stoat is the subject of this Living World from 2003. Normally stoats are more often only seen in open countryside dashing across open ground and out of sight. Yet in North Yorkshire stoats have made their home closer to humans, within the ruins of Mount Grace Priory near Osmotherley. To find out more Lionel Kelleway headed to Europe's best preserved Carthusian Priory where in the company of stoat expert Robbie MacDonald, and Priory custodian Becky Wright they head off to find out more and in the course of their visit explain some of the fascinating and unique stoat biology and behaviour. In the years since this episode was first broadcast, our knowledge of these engaging mustelids has developed, allowing wildlife presenter Lindsey Chapman to revisit this Living World and gently update the story for today's audience.

Ferrets, Stoats, Minks, but most importantly.... WEASELS! They're here for a very specific purpose: World Domination. And why should we expect anything less? This fun little book was a surprise in how much we enjoyed it. So much fun literally from beginning to end-papers. (See the pun I did there?) And if you, for one, wish to pay respects to our future weasel overlords, the least you could do is listen to this episode! Rachel & Sam Read a Story is about the fun of reading children's books new and old, and also about how little sense these books make when you read them 20 years later. We read the books aloud and make fun of them as we go. Enjoy! Follow Sam (@SamGasch) or follow Rachel (@Sknowite). Either way, please subscribe!
Interview with Didymo Dave about how Hunters Canbecome more active in their environment. Words from Dave - "At a show a few years ago I watched young people looking at taxidermied Stoats etc and thought something is not quite right here? Eventually I figured out we have 5 senses and while having animals taxidermied on display is great and in some places the only appropriate option, it only allows people to engage with their vision. There's no smell and the Don't Touch sig...ns prohibit touch. So I started building a collection of freshly trapped, then frozen animals and taking them to where ever was a good place. Oh dear that created trouble, now I get regular invites to speak to schools, cubs, scouts etc with the added comment "Please can you bring your animals?". And if you could see a class of young ones chasing each other around the playground with dead Stoats, Ferrets, Rats etc you would appreciate that this works. So if anyone needs to borrow them, they are in my freezer, all ready to go" Find him on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/didymo.dave Check him out on TV http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/good-sorts-dave-cade-video-5871767
New Zealand is known as a land of extensive wilderness and pristine ecosystems, but, as with pretty much every single other natural habitat on this planet, it isn’t without its issues. These isolated islands have got some pretty big problems being caused by some very little animals. Before Maori settlement in the early to mid-1300s New Zealand’s two big islands and numerous surrounding smaller islands were completely human-free. Since our species arrived, the country has seen its (largely endemic) bird population plummet, with numerous near and complete extinctions of some seriously amazing species, including all nine species of moa - a giant, flightless bird that reached heights of up to 3.6 metres, weighed up to 250kg and laid 4kg eggs, and the giant Haast eagle - the largest eagle to have ever lived, with talons reaching 8cm, a wingspan of up to 3 metres and standing at a metre tall. Throughout history, New Zealand’s native species have faced many threats - overhunting, land use changes and habitat destruction - but in the modern day, the most pressing threat to New Zealands bird, lizard and insect life are invasive predators. Not only is the wildlife suffering, but the natural habitats are too - reduced bird populations means less seed spreading and less pollination, and habitat health is declining as a result. These predators have been introduced both accidentally and purposefully, sometimes purposefully to try and remove the accidentally introduced ones. But, the NZ government, in collaboration with Predator Free NZ ( https://predatorfreenz.org ) , have set an ambitious target of removing all invasive predators by 2050 - Predator Free 2050 - it’s got a good ring to it right?! This may sound like one of the world’s most ambitious conservation projects due to the predator populations being absolutely huge, but with a massive amount of community and stakeholder support, and some amazing scientific innovation, it might just be possible and in some areas and for some species, it’s already working. Listen as Wildlife Biologist Hannah Mulvany speaks with Jessi Morgan, CEO of Predator Free NZ, about the conservation battle the country is fighting, and how they are getting on.
