The Department of Conservation in New Zealand is giving you, yes you, the chance to spend two days and one night raising Kakapo chicks! Bidding is on TradeMe (New Zealand’s eBay), and the money raised will go to clearing the Antipodes Islands of introduced rats (a story we talked about before). So it’s win-win really. Bidding ends Sunday in New Zealand, Saturday in the US.
