Welcome to the Predator Free Hutt Valley website

We have a difference worth defending. Our harbouring hills, Te Awakairangi, and our native taonga species, over half of which aren’t found anywhere else on earth. This uniqueness is what’s driving us to join New Zealand’s ambitious goal of Predator Free 2050.

If every community in every suburb gets backyard trapping, we’ll rid our neighbourhoods of introduced pests like rats, stoats and possums. We’ll see kākā in Korokoro, wētāpunga in Waiwhetū, and even tuatara in Totara Park. Imagine that. Better yet, let’s do it.

It takes every patch to make a paradise. Find a predator free community group in your suburb.
