Predator Free 2050 summary

85 years ago the first country to split from Gondwanaland was New Zealand. Gondwanaland is when all the earth's land is all in one spot and all was one big country but years later they all started to separate and become continantins. Which means the mammals that New zealand only has must have traveled there by flying or swimming.

Because New Zealand is an island there were no mammals so all the other animals like birds and insects became lazy because there were no predators to run from.

But later settlers brought pests such as stoats, possums and rats and they started to destroy all the native things in New Zealand. Did you know that New Zealand holds the record of having the worst extinctions, (that is not good)

New Zealand is trying to control the pests by using traps and poison. It is the whole of New Zealand's responsibility to take care of all the natives of New Zealand and to control all the pestes so they do not make any more native things extinct.
