OUR native birds are menaced on all sides by poachers, collectors, bird diseases, cats, stoats, weasels, rats, the destruction of their remaining homes
as well as by the very indifferent administration of our conservation laws and require the hearty sympathy and interest of all lovers of nature and New Zealand while our forests are menaced and will be lost to us with disastrous effects on our prosperity unless introduced animals and fire are excluded.
The support of every right-thinking New Zealander is required to avoid what would he a national disaster—the loss or further decrease of our inimitable flora and fauna. .It is the business and to the interest of every citizen to preserve them. Do not be content to leave Mour interests to others.
