Avian Botulism Webinar

Welcome to the Avian Botulism Webinar! Join us online as Davey Jones from Hawke's Bay Fish and Game discusses key insights and learning from the recent outbreak event in Hawkes' Bay.

Avian botulism poses a serious threat to Aotearoa New Zealand's birds and aquatic ecosystems — causing large-scale die-offs with significant ecological, economic, and cultural impacts. With climate change expected to increase these risks, it's more important than ever to collaborate on effective prevention, management, and monitoring strategies.

This is a great opportunity to learn about the challenges involved and explore how better preparation and coordination can help us more effectively safeguard our environment.

Greetings to you all

I have been with HBF&G for 3 years. I have a BA VAD (Visual Arts and Design)and Dip Sports Science. I have a passion for the environment and that’s how I found myself in this space. I’ve always had a can do, must do attitude which I believe has helped in forming my life and work ethics.
