It makes you wonder is this going to be another cover up?
Mick Smith is already saying that the use of preventative additives mixed in with the baits is designed to stop the bi-kill of non targeted species. We all know that really works.
New Zealand Firsts Richard Prosser is calling for a MORATORIUM ON THE USE OF 1080.
Is it time for the parties involved to be prosecuted if the 1080 drop was responsible for the death of these rock wren.
I guess we will have to wait and see what the investigation shows up.

and if you dont drop it a hell of a lot more native species will die.
