I can only imagine how exciting it must be to come across such wild animals! Love the simplicity of your words, yet so enticing to read.

I used to watch this YouTube channel by Hannahlee and her off grid life. She used to pet the rats she traps in her house and release them far away in the forest. As someone who is scared of rats I admired her courage and kindness. I was reminded of her rat stories.

I have to say, I admire your dedication to pest control and your goal of protecting the local ecosystem. It's a bit of a battle, but it sounds like you’re doing your part to keep New Zealand’s native wildlife thriving. I hope you manage to catch Riley soon, but it seems like he might just be one step ahead of you Sophie :)
