Abstract:

Intensive ground-based searches for white-tailed deer carcasses in the Dart Valley/Routeburn catchments following the aerial application of 1080 cereal pellets, August 2014, intended to extend protection to mohua by preventing a rodent plague by specifically targeting rat and stoat populations following a beech mast event. This search was conducted in collaboration with the Department of Conservation (DoC), New Zealand Deerstalkers Association (NZDA), Landcare Research and volunteers from the public.
