Note: 

New Zealand Journal of Ecology special issue: Feathers to Fur

This special issue, Feathers to Fur: the ecological transformation of Aotearoa/New Zealand, reviews the current status of New Zealand ecology. It updates the 1989 Moas Mammals and Climate special issue (NZJ Ecol 12 supplement).

It originated from a full day symposium of invited talks at the 2007 annual conference of the New Zealand Ecological Society (the audio from all talks on this first day are also available as podcasts).
