Summary
New Zealand’s Department of Conservation is launching a lightning-fast online permit system for trapping feral cats—soon, approvals will be instant, not weeks-long. With millions of feral cats wreaking havoc on native species and now officially part of the Predator Free 2050 mission, this digital shift could spark a conservation revolution. Hunters like Victor Tindale, frustrated by the old paper maze, see trapping as vital public stewardship—especially as funding tightens. Competitions like Matt Bailey’s are already proving the scale of the problem, removing hundreds of cats that threaten both wildlife and livestock. This move isn’t just convenient—it’s a call to action for everyone who cares about New Zealand’s future. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
