Summer science: Mice in Predator Free 2050, and kaimoana for communities

Description:

Welcome to the summer science series! We're kicking off with two stories made by local podcast producers. First, on New Zealand's quest to become predator free by 2050, are we forgetting about mice? Dan Moskovitz, a student at Victoria University of Wellington, investigates what might happen to mice – and ecosystems as more areas become predator free. Then, a story from Xanthe Smith's Catch On podcast. Many people who consume fish stick to eating the fillets, meaning a substantial chunk of the whole fish gets chucked. A project seeks to tackle this food waste by connecting communities with kaimoana.

Guests:

  • Associate Professor Stephen Hartley, Victoria University of Wellington
  • Dr Araceli Samaniego
  • Brent Bevan, Department of Conservation
  • Chris Jupp, Kai Ika
  • Vera, Kokiri Marae Naenae Hub
