1.Possums are a serious pest animal in New Zealand and a threat to our native forests for e.g They eat leaves off our native tress and the flowers that bloom on them.
2. They eat, eggs, birds, insects and snails and in eating these things they are damaging native wildlife that belongs NZ and threatens our native wildlife to go extinct.
3.They eat flowers off our fruit trees which means half the fruit is gone and stopping fruit companies.
Hi Kyan,
ReplyDeleteI used to live on a farm, so I know all about possums as pests... We would go possum hunting most weekends to try and get rid of them on our farm. Unfortunately they are causing lots of problems to New Zealand's native animals and environment. What do you think is the best way to get rid of them?
