RAMBO (Rats and Mustelid Blitzing Ōtari)

Was set up in July 2007 for trapping to compliment Wellington Regional Council’s poison bait program in Otari-Wilton’s Bush. While the main target is mustelids and hedgehogs quite a number of rats are being caught. There are now some 70 DOC200 traps throughout the Reserve and in adjoining areas.
