Subject: Official Information request - Koura

Dear Department of Conservation,

What is the penalty for killing Koura or native freshwater crayfish with a toxin?. Has DOC ever prosecuted anyone or any company for poisoning them? As an example with Cypermethrin, 1080 or Talon?

Thanks,

T. Benseman
