We want the central isthmus of Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland to be a place where communities come together to eliminate pest mammals – rats, possums, mustelids – and remove pest plants, while planting native species and restoring natural ecosystems. Urban Ark – Manawa Taiao envisions a thriving network of biodiverse parks, reserves and backyards connecting our maunga and awa.

Join your local trapping group, start a backyard trapping group, remove weeds from your local reserve or join a native planting session.
