Ka noho nga Kereru ki whea? Ka noho nga Kereru ki whea?
In 2008 the threat rating for kereru was changed to "not threatened" (previously was "gradual decline"). It is still illegal to hunt or hurt them though. The reason the status was changed was because good pest control (stoats, possums, and rats) in some areas has increased the number of kereru. In other areas, where pest control is not so good, the number of kereru is still getting smaller and there is still a possibility that they become extinct in these places - unless people start reducing the pest numbers. Over all of New Zealand the number of kereru is probably not increasing or decreasing.
