Cuzzy Kev came round last night. he that can shoot the eyelash of a gnat at 50 paces.
seen him get a stoat on the run! with a .22. with a pistol he would be deadly. anyway he wuz telling me about the biggest ferret he ever caught. It was in the back of mount Bruce (Mt PuPu) about 1973. In the school hols his dad would take him up to a 40 acre run off block where he knew the farmer and they would spotlight C.E. Daniels old logging tracks. On the sunday Mr Fenwick from Kahautara would come round in his old Falcon ute filled with possum carcasses already and give them a dollar each. During the week Kevs dad would go back to work and Kev and his mate would trap the surroundings right up to the summit. One day he found one of the traps sprung and a pool of blood but no animal. A 100 yards up the track he found the critter. Its skull was squashed where it had wrenched itself out but it was done for. Kev didnt bother skinning it. Just threw it away. They stink you know.
So time for some Kakapo Recovery Awareness.
thank you John gilberthorpe.
I see that they have just about ridded Macquarie Island of vermin but there have been new sightings on Kapiti Island.
Is someone putting them there deliberately?
Dont laugh.
