Following the current Government's amendment to the Wildlife Act, the Director-General of Conservation will have the ability to enable companies to kill kiwi and other native wildlife if they are seen as obstructing infrastructure and resource-based projects such as roads, mines or dams.

As a collective, we need to fight against this. Aotearoa's wildlife are some of the richest and most important parts of what makes us as a nation, on top of the importance of looking after them as they can't look after themselves. A human threat towards native wildlife should not be permissible; hence, this petition advocates for entrenching the protection of Native NZ Birds in legislation. This includes repealing the latest amendment made, and entrenching the Wildlife Act in legislation.
