Horses are her calling Aongatete woman Bex Tasker is known for training animals, like sheep and chickens, to do tricks because people see her perform at local A&P shows, but she’s actually a professional horse trainer.

“My main work is actually training horses using force free and fear free techniques, and teaching people horsemanship skills,” said Tasker, pictured here with her horse Cadence. But right

now she’s on her third Kaimanawa assignment, training two female horses from the recent muster of the heritage breed that roams wild on the range they’re named after in Central North

Island. And she wants the public to know the work of raising funds to rehome the horses isn’t done yet – with a second muster planned for July. Read more on page 2-3. Photo / David Hall

Raising Kaimanawa awareness An Aongatete horse trainer who recently took on two Kaimanawa horses – straight from the wild – says there’s still more urgent work to be done to help the heritage horse breed. Bex Tasker, who runs dog training classes, horsemanship clinics and kids’ classes using positive reinforcement methods via her business Positively Together, is working on taming the two female horses for their respective new owners. The horses were delivered by truck to Tasker’s Wright Rd property on April 27 – straight from the annual autumn muster of the herd that roam the Kaimanawa Range on Waiōuru military training land in the Central North Island. The Department of Conservation aims to keep the wild herd to about 300 horses – an agreed limit to keep horses healthy and protect fragile ecosystems of the Moawhango Ecological Zone. Rehoming is coordinated by not-for-profit group Kaimanawa Heritage Horses.

Balance

In recent years, with Animal Ethics Committee support, DoC has introduced a contraceptive treatment for some mares to support population control. This method would take a few years to take effect, and rehoming continued to be the primary tool for herd management, said DoC senior biodiversity ranger Sarah Tunnicliffe. “The muster is our opportunity to

balance the continued health of the heritage herd with the protection of rare plants and ecosystems which make New Zealand special. It’s a win-win, but is reliant on Kaimanawa Heritage Horses getting enough applications for rehoming.” Tasker is no stranger to training the heritage breed. She adopted a colt when living in Hunua near Auckland in 2012; and in 2014 she took on a Kaimanawa mare and her foal – “one of the trickier combinations” – when she had a

7-month-old baby herself. “It was all a bit madness,” admitted Tasker, who a decade later is on her third Kaimanawa assignment. This time, one horse, about 18 months old, belongs to an Auckland client and will be transported north once she’s completed her basic training, Tasker said. “The other belongs to my working student Radha Foulds, who is 17.

A second muster

“Radha will keep her horse here long-

term, and I’ll continue to mentor her through the whole process.” A DoC survey had shown the herd number had grown to more than double the recommended 300 horses, so the April 27 muster aimed to remove and rehome more than 250 horses – but Tasker said this wasn’t achieved and a second muster was planned for July. According to the Kaimanawa Legacy Foundation and KHH, an additional 123 horses would need removing from the ranges come July – so far only 20-odd have homes. More private homes are needed to take horses from the next muster, or the public can sponsor horses to go to approved trainers, said Tasker. “KLF has a Givealittle page – where the public can donate to help save more horses, with the money going toward ‘stockpiling’ excess horses, covering their care and training while they await homes,” said Tasker. “So this is the big push now, but once the contraceptives start taking effect, we won’t have to do such massive rehoming efforts. But if we can save these ones, obviously it’s going to get easier every year from now on because there’ll be fewer foals in future.” Tasker said Kaimanawas haven’t needed culling for 10 years – but that was due to the tireless work of KHH and KLF volunteers undertaking adoption campaigns and the public donating generously. Those interested in helping could visit: www ww ww. w kaimanawaheritagehorses.org or see the Kaimanawa Legacy Foundation Facebook page.

Settling in

Back at Aongatete, the horses are starting to settle in. “We’re just at the point of touching and haltering now with these guys, and it’s been three weeks.” Their arrival wasn’t smooth sailing, said Tasker. The foal, a nine-month-old weanling, arrived with a joint injury and infection. “They came that week

of torrential rain,” said Tasker. “And we had to get a horse two days out of the wild sedated [for treatment]… Then two days later, we had to do it again; the vet basically did field surgery in the pouring rain. It’ss been very stressful, but it’s worked! The wound is healing, she’s now on antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication, and she’s out on the grass in the sunshine, which is huge.” Tasker admitted taking on a wild Kaimanawa is “a massively time consuming thing to do”, which is why she hasn’t done so for 10 years. “Ironically, everyone around Katikati thinks I’m only training animals like sheep and chickens to do tricks because they see me performing at A&P shows but my main work is actually training horses using force-free and fear-free techniques, and teaching people horsemanship skills.” That’s what Tasker is internationally-

known for – her Positively Together business takes her around New Zealand and overseas hosting talks, clinics and workshops with equine lovers. “In the last decade I’ve been at Aongatete, I’vve been focusing on Positively Together, which entails a lot of travel, and my family. So until now I haven’t felt like I could put my business on hold to train Kaimanawas.”

‘Nothing else like it’

But Tasker admitted it’s an incredible experience – “there’s nothing else like it”. “They’re lovely horses to have around and the journey of taking them from having never seen a human up-close to accepting touch and being able to go exploring and take them to the beach and things like that is really special. “It’s the ultimate blank slate, I guess you could say, but you have to have the right facilities and the right experience to be able to

do it. When they arrive, they’re terrified of you, so they don’t want you even in the same space as them… and we need to get them to the point where they can eat from the hand, and be touched and e ve n t u a l l y p i c k u p t h e i r f e e t a n d w a l k o n to a float.” Often looking “pretty nondescript” when they first come out of the wild, Tasker said the horses “massively glow up in the next six months” when their fluffy ffyy coats turn sleek “and we fix their feet, de-worm them and give them good feed”. By October’s Equifest, event-goers will see Kaimanawas from the recent muster looking like domestic horses. “And that’s ultimately what they’ll become. They’re good quality animals, with a good temperament, and they’re solid – which is something to do with them being in the wild. They just take it as it comes and they’re incredibly resilient.” Merle Cave

Nurturing fruit trees, people and connections! A Tauranga-based construction leadership team got their hands dirty last week to help Grow On Katikati tend to a fruit tree orchard which will one day see children able to pick seasonal fruit to eat on their way to or from school. Seven of Colliers’ Project Leader team, who usually lead construction or development projects from start to finish, turned up at the Beach Rd/Park Rd corner reserve-come-orchard on May 20, armed with spades, wheelbarrows and trowels to edge, weed, and add mulch to trees that will bear fruit for future generations.

Grow On Katikati coordinator Jizzy Green said the orchard is part of a Town Food Resilience plan, which the nonprofit group is working toward achieving. “Seven fruit trees were planted in collaboration with GOK, Katikati College’s GrowHub and Mana Kai Mana Ora in November 2023,” said Green. “The trees are part of the plan, along with 48 fruit trees in Kati KaiWay, which was a Katikati Kindergarten initiative many years back.”

Giving back

Green said SociaLink put GOK in contact with Colliers’ Project Leader team, who wanted to give back to the community by doing something meaningful. “They left their desk-bound jobs to weed, edge and spread the huge mountain of tree mulch kindly donated by local business, All Terrain Chipping.” Green said the patch of grass and trees is more than just a corner reserve. “It is a living, breathing community space where we get to nurture not only fruit trees but also people and connections. This place was created to support and uplift our community through sustainable growing of kai, shared knowledge and good oldfashioned teamwork. “This is our community asset and we invite interested parties to step forward to help care for it.”

Future work

mulching, said Green. “There will come a time when the trees are mature and they’ll need pruning, and pest and disease management – and we look forward to a time when children walking to school can pick seasonal fruit to eat.” Green said the Colliers team “really mucked in to give our little community fruit tree orchard the TLC it needed”. “After the hard work, we shared a morning tea together in the sunshine.” To learn more about Grow On Katikati and their food resilience work, visit: www.
