🇳🇿 Feral Pig Invasion

People in a suburb of Wellington, New Zealand, found themselves and their livelihoods firmly in the hooves of herds of feral pigs that were wreaking havoc in parks, farms and homes.

Some people resorted to arming themselves (legally) to protect their children, pets, livestock. Like Naomi Steenkamp who owns Brooklyn Creamery, a local goat milk farm.

Trying something new

After more than 10 years lurking on Twitter, I have decided to give Tumblr a proper go (I've had 2 accounts before but forgot the usernames, twice).

Here I will mostly share excerpts of my work, creating audio packages and presentation for radio and podcasts for the BBC. Elsewhere (on the internet) my work and I can be found on LinkedIn, Vimeo and Instagram. Links here: https://t.co/63ViKaI1ba
