Pest control to deal with the large rabbit population on Man Made Hill, Twizel will be starting soon.
Shooting will take place in June between the hours of 9:00pm and 3:00am when conditions permit.
Rabbit populations have become a common sight in this area, and these measures are being put in place to help address this.
The affected area is marked on the map below. Please stay away from this area at night and keep your pets from roaming here during this time.
Signage will be in place, and access gates will be locked.
The pest control work will finish by Sunday 30 June.
