Sound Lure Project in the Media - Wrapping Up 2021

 We have been featured recently indirectly in a two seperate articles and locations.   The first was indirectly when during an article on the students program What Now! one of the students who was featured was shown a range of equipment that was used in possum control and one of those items was one of the projects sound lures was demonstrated to the student.   The link here is to the Facebook link of the news article.

The second appearance was as part of the 123 Tech National Finals - the students from Auroa Primary School were the winners of this competition last year (see this link for the competition) and we were also spoken to for this years competition - the link to that is here.

While we did not enter the competition with our students this year we wanted to take the opportunity to congratulate all of this years winners on their achievements.

Finally we are continuing to work on our sound lure project and focussed on the distress lure. brush tailed possum combination.   This has taken somewhat of a back seat due to other commitments at present we are however continuing to monitor and test and look forward to making some announcements shortly as we look to close the project up.

This brush tailed possum was photographed last night interacting with the lure.

Project Mounga Innovation Video

This video about the stoat aspect of our project was professionally produced by Project Mounga and features the original design of the project and the explanation behind the background from 2019. This was produced specifically to highlight examples of innovation from the Taranaki Area and was recorded in March 2020. We are very proud of the focus on our students and school and the Facebook version of this video has been shared extensively and is approaching ten thousands views in its first week of release.
