• Predation and other factors currently limiting New Zealand forest birds. (2010, background): “For example, contrary to expectation, the removal of cats from Hauturu during 1976–1980 was not followed by significant increases in forest bird numbers (Girardet et al. 2001), and predation on Cook’s petrels actually increased (Rayner et al 2007).”
• The eradication of feral cats (Felis catus) from Little Barrier Island, New Zealand (2001, background): “Since completion of cat eradication, forest bird populations have been observed to increase in number and then return to former levels, possibly due to the continuing presence of rats (Girardet et al. 2001).”
