A community meeting to discuss ‘daisy drive’ technology for invasive predator removal New Zealanders will need novel technologies to meet the nation’s goal of removing invasive mammalian predators by 2050. ‘Daisy drive’ systems could help by spreading genes causing infertility through local invasive populations. Because the technology aims to alter the shared environment, all research should be open and community guided.
