"Native skinks cause cost blowout for Porirua sewarge tank"... This framing really pisses me right off. It's like, by existing, these blameless animals, unique to this place in NZ, are somehow an inefficiency that adds costs to the taxpayer. Really, we're seeing the lack of responsible planning from Wellington water and the incompetence of people who think that an animal's right to exist in its native habitat is an extravagance.
