Every year an army of introduced predators devours the eggs and chicks of some 26 million native New Zealand birds, as well as countless insects, amphibians, reptiles and plants. We currently have more than 4000 natives on the threatened species list and many more vulnerable to predation – this is New Zealand’s catalogue of shame.

But in 2016, the nation decided enough was enough. Predator Free 2050 was born — an eviction order served on the three most voracious predators — rats, stoats and possums.

Fight for the Wild takes viewers into the wild heart of Aotearoa and documents the desperate battle to protect it while undertaking our most ambitious conservation effort ever. It explores the notion of a Predator Free 2050 and asks whether this big, bold initiative is achievable and if so, how?
