Just imagine then what it is like to have them all gone after a 1080 drop. After The Dept of Conservation ordered packets stapled to the trees around bush bordering the National Park we had lots of dead Penguins all the Paradise duck (my Pets) gone. All the Pukekos but for a few babies gone. The bush in the Park is all but Silent always anyway, (1080 kills the Insects) but now around the farm, since the 1080 drop all the Tuis Wood Pidgeons and most birdlife is gone. Damn Disgrace.
