Neil Henderson
Neil Henderson is a dedicated conservationist with the Kaipātiki Project, where he focuses on the protection and study of New Zealand's long-tailed bat, the country's only native land mammal. Passionate about sustainable practices, he has implemented solar-powered audio bat recorders across northwest Auckland, significantly reducing the need for traditional battery-operated equipment while enhancing data collection on bat populations. Henderson believes in the importance of community engagement in conservation, encouraging citizen volunteers to participate in monitoring efforts, and fostering a deeper connection between people and nature. His work is pivotal in promoting biodiversity and environmental awareness in the face of urban development.
