DOC seeking information on Whangateau shooting

The Department of Conservation is investigating a fatal shooting of a kākā parrot in Whangateau, which it says is the latest in a spate of attacks on native wildlife.
The juvenile kākā, believe to be a year old, was found injured but alive by a DOC staff member who had been alerted by a member of the public in May.
Despite best efforts, the bird had to be euthanised. A necropsy found that a slug bullet had been lodged in its left leg while its right leg was completely fractured.
