The talk by Dr. Daria Erastova, Te Hoiere Bat Recovery Project Manager is titled Home Renovation at Pekepekasville
The Te Hoiere Pelorus Bat Recovery project aims to support the critically endangered pekapeka (long-tailed bat) population in the Pelorus Catchment area by improving their home habitats. The project focuses on four key Reserves where bats are known to roost: Pelorus Bridge, Carluke Scenic, Ronga Recreational, and Brown River. This talk covers the "home renovation" mahi that THBR does for local bats: predator control, weed removal, native tree planting, and bat monitoring.
