I stand before you today to tell you that Possums are dangerous to our native birds, and our native forests. They are one of the most common pests in New Zealand and they spread diseases. They damage our forests, farms, orchards,and gardens and cost us millions of dollars as well as millions of birds disappearing from our land each year. This gets me worried. Imagine all our native birds becoming extinct! Luckily there are ways that we can rid of possums. I am going to inform you the reasons why they are not cute and cuddly pets but evil dangerous pests!!!

The first reason why I believe that possums are dangerous because possums destroy our native forest by eating 21,000 tonnes of vegetation per day. Trees and plants that are rare could be driven to local or national extinction by possums such as some misletoe species and the wood rose. Possums have also been seen killing or eating eggs, chicks or adults of at least five native birds including the rare Kokako and the Kokupa (native pigeon). As a result I believe our native birds will become extinct and our forests will get destroyed! My friend told me that he had a possum in his Totara tree at his house and it ate all the Tui eggs. That is evil!!

My second reason is why possums are dangerous is that they spread the nasty disease TB, this is a deadly disease that can be spread to other animals such as cows. The disease can kill the animals and the possums themselves. TB in possums can be stopped if, 70% of the population is wiped out. This could take up to 10 years. Like I was saying they are not cute and cuddly, they are predators that kill and carry horrible diseases!!

So how do we get rid of these impostors from Australia. My third reason is there are many ways to get rid of possums leg holes, cages and boxes and kill traps and many poisons but the most effective is 1080 cinnamon which is sometimes added to possums baits. To mask the taste of 1080. Possum biocontrol means they eat bait that stops them from having babies and their population becomes less and less.

So surely you can now understand why possums are a pest and we need to get rid of them but we must find a kind way of doing this.
