Talk: Seabird Bycatch in Aotearoa and Beyond

Tue 19 Nov 2024, 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM

Venue: Wānaka Community Hub

Seabird Bycatch in Aotearoa and Beyond: What's happening, and what you can do about it?


Aotearoa has more threatened seabirds than anywhere on the planet. The problem is poorly understood, and the impact of fisheries bycatch is hugely underappreciated. 


Graham Parker (Parker Conservation) will summarise the current state of seabird bycatch in NZ commercial fisheries and beyond, and what everyday New Zealanders can do to help.


Entry by donation at the door.
