Trapping in the Ruahine ranges

From Afternoons, 1:24 pm on 17 February 2020

A Wellington couple have been going deep into remote parts of the Ruahine Ranges - laying and checking traps for predators. They've had huge success over the last seven years - helping the bird population regenerate, and flourish. 

Geoff and Lisa Whittle join Jesse to explain how they became such ardent trappers.
