Inhabited Island Predator Eradications

Our inhabited island predator eradication gallery pages show some amazing places and tell a little about the incredible conservation work being undertaken to protect these special places and their special biodiversity. You can click on an island below to visit its gallery.

During 2018/19, we visited seven inhabited islands where introduced predator eradications have been successful, were in progress, or were being planned. ​To compare and contrast eradication projects, islands were chosen to include:
  • Large island eradications
  • Small island eradications
  • Kill trapping eradications
  • Live trapping eradications
  • Ground based poison eradications
  • Aerial poison eradications
  • Pre-eradication projects
  • Early stage eradication projects
  • Late stage eradication projects
  • Post eradication projects​
We acknowledge and thank everyone we met on our travels who gave their time and expertise so we could better understand their frustrating challenges, disappointing setbacks and remarkable successes.
