REX

On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with Samantha White from Whitehaven Wines in Marlborough about its association with marine environment group LegaSea via its Kōparepare wine brand, donating 100% of proceeds of Kōparepare to LegaSea for selected days in June and the nautical history of the vineyard, started by Samantha's parents in the 1990s... He talks with retired professor, ecologist and keen tramper David Norton about high deer numbers, the damage they're causing to native forests and farmland and what can be done to more effectively mange deer populations... And he talks with Professor Jackie Benschop from Massey University about presenting at the recent NZ Veterinary Association conference on the latest research into leptospirosis, the discoveries made following Cyclones Gabrielle and Hale and the subsequent flooding in 2023 and the best preventative actions.
