Episode Synopsis "Creature Feature - 28-08-2024 - Fairy Prion - Jordana Whyte and Graeme Loh"

Fairy Prion - The fairy prion tītī wainui is a small blue seabird that once bred all around the coastline of mainland Aotearoa. Voracious introduced predators forced fairy prion colonies onto offshore islands – but one mainland population clings to survival on steep cliffs near Ōtepoti Dunedin, where Forest and Bird carries out predator control to protect these precious birds. Dunedin Wildlife Hospital's Jordana Whyte is joined by Graeme Loh, who runs the Friends of the Prion fence project up on the St Clair cliffs. This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin - oar.org.nz
