WATCH: “Using Technology to Trap Smarter, Not Harder” – Andy Saunders

Pestival Webinar Replay:

“In my opinion, Predator-Free 2050, for it to be successful, we need tools that don’t burn the community’s energy and trust. And the old school way of trapping with the kill traps, I think does burn energy. It’s tools like the Tāwhiti Smart Cages that are going to help us get there. We are going to need better tools than this, but Smart Cages are probably one of the first ones to start us in the right direction”

In this video hear from Andy Saunders about how technology can play a big role in making predator-control on large properties and bush blocks sustainable. “We’re the only ones doing this in a community way. And learning quite quickly how to keep landowners in the game”

Featuring Predator Free Franklin’s Tāwhiti – Smart Cage, Wheronet’s Remote Trap Monitors and the Trap.NZ app, making recording & understanding your predator control and biodiversity data easy.

This video first aired as part of the Franklin Online Pestival, in November 2022.
