Decades of volunteer effort restores native lizard population

High on the rugged hillsides of the Paekākāriki Escarpment track on the Kāpiti Coast of New Zealand, Paul Callister and his team of committed volunteers from Ngā Uruora community conservation group, have been spraying weeds, trapping pests and planting native plants for nearly 20 years. It’s not easy or paid work so we were lucky that Paul had time to tell us his story - about what keeps him going and what attracted him to the project in the first place.
