Kaupapa Kereru Research
Since 2000 Kaupapa Kererū has researched the kereru population on Horomaka / Banks Peninsula to increase our understanding of the ecology of kereru on Horomaka. This will allow Kaupapa Kererū to develop recommendations for requirements on predator control, feeding and habitat requirements to increase the numbers of kererū on Horomaka / Banks Peninsula.
Kaupapa Kererū is co-ordinating a number of different research projects on kererū ecology on Horomaka / Banks Peninsula. To find out more information on our research projects click on the following documents:
