Calling conservation volunteers
WANT TO HELP survey little spotted kiwi, trap stoats, collect native seeds, pull pines, restore huts and tracks or capture giant weta? These tasks and more are available to New Zealanders who want to do something practical for conservation. DoC has a detailed programme through to August next year of important projects that require volunteers. The projects are graded for varying fitness levels and required skills (such as painting, first aid, or just good eyesight and keen interest), and vary from one-day jobs to longer ongoing projects. A donation is sometimes requested to cover food and transport costs. For details of projects in your area and registration forms, contact the volunteer coordinator in your local DoC conservancy office. A list of the full national programme can be obtained from Kellie Coombes on 04-471-0726.
