F&B - Places for Penguins coordinate this project to reverse the population decline of little penguins in Wellington. We are planting penguin friendly coastal plants around the Miramar coast, monitoring nest boxes and educating people about threats to little penguins/korora like car strikes, dog attacks and marine pollution. One of our main activity is predator control through monitoring a number of trap lines and bait stations in areas on the Miramar Peninsula and South Coast.
We are working in: Coastal northern Miramar peninsula to Seatoun; Shelley Bay; Carter Park; Strathmore Park; coastline from Breaker Bay around to Moa Point, including Rangitatau Reserve and Ataturk Park.
