A new short documentary, Stoat's Last Stand, tells the story of Waiheke Island's ambitious community-led effort to eradicate stoats from the island. Seven years into the project - the group is seeing incredible success with native species returning - and their mahi is attracting attention from conservation groups around New Zealand and the world. Aaron Cluka was inspired to tell their story after learning of the damage stoats do to wildlife while tramping the Routeburn track. Stoat's last stand will be screening at the Doc Edge Festival 2026 which opens tomorrow in Auckland and then moves to Wellington next month. Aaron Cluka joins Emile.
