Back in December 2023 our Pestfree Cadets visited our local estuary and took dna samples to see what lives there. Check out our field trip here - https://wakaenviro.blogspot.com/search?q=edna
The Wilderlab got back to us with the results: https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/wilderlab.openwaters/reports/a5fbe79b5ac54637.html
We were very excited about the banded kokopu and short finned eel. We wanted to share what we've learnt about the importance of estuaries and the endemic and native animals that live there.
After exploring the difference between endemic, native and introduced we broke into groups and adopted an estuary animal from the testing and field trip observation to research and champion.
We have contacted the Wilderlab to see if they will donated some kits so we can repeating out testing.
