  • Trap line marker symbol explanation sign. The Milford Track in Fiordland National Park, Southland region, South Island of New Zealand. Nonnative predators such as stoats & rats have devastated New Zealand’s unique bird life. Recent rodent trapping & poisoning efforts have helped keep some bird species from decimation. Norway rats were on the ships of the first explorers, who arrived in New Zealand in the late 1700s. Stoats, weasels, and ferrets were introduced to New Zealand as early as 1879 to control nonnative rabbits that were destroying sheep pasture. Almost without exception, introduced species have been detrimental to the native flora and fauna. However, trekking into remote NZ parks still makes a wonderful escape into what's left of the uniquely beautiful Gondwanan wilderness. In 1990, UNESCO honored Te Wahipounamu - South West New Zealand as a World Heritage Area.
