The longest Nigel's spent working at sea, without setting foot on land, is three months. In this series, Hook Line and Sinker, were taking a dive into Aotearoa New Zealand’s seafood sector.

| 7/14/23 |  You Do What?! - Detecting Biosecurity Porkies | Zoran Sinovcic pulls out jars of antelope horn, pangolin scales and exotic insect larvae. All of them pose a danger to our primary industries and could be carrying diseases we are desperately trying to keep out.

See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 7/7/23 |  You do what?! - What lies beneath | It’s much more difficult to detect marine pests than land-based pests but there is a network of people diving and scouring beaches to identify anything unwanted and new. Marine pest sleuth Abe Growcott says the public also has an important role to play. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 6/30/23 |  You Do What?! - No Way Out | The National Animal Health Laboratory is New Zealand’s most sophisticated building. It’s here that animal diseases are identified and has been designed so nothing can leak out, even in the event of a one-in-500-year earthquake. To make sure dangerous organisms don't hitch a ride out with staff, glasses and hearing aids must be left outside the highest security lab, and second sets are provided for inside. Strict protocols govern whether tradies can take their tools home at the end of the day. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 6/23/23 |  You do what?! - Not to be sniffed at | At MPI’s detector dog centre in Auckland tiny pups can be found tumbling over each other playing to the sound of rumbling explosions and whooshing fireworks. In this podcast we meet an MPI dog care specialist who works with the pups to prepare them for work in busy, noisy environments. The pups will go on to run their noses over parcels at the International Mail Centre and bags in airports, to sniff out anything that could harm New Zealand’s primary industries. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 6/8/23 |  You do what?! - Don't bug us! | The brown marmorated stink bug is on New Zealand’s ‘most wanted’ list. It could do huge damage to our export crops and make them unmarketable. Many feared it would have established in Aoteoroa by now, but thanks to controls at the border and offshore, we’ve managed to keep it at bay. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 6/1/23 |  You do what?! - No shore excursions for pests | MPI sends quarantine officers in to examine the buffet of every cruise ship that berths in New Zealand. They’re not assessing the quality of the food but check whole fruit isn’t on display in case visitors are tempted to slip some into their pockets and bring it ashore. The quarantine officers also have a list of other checks to make to ensure any unwanted pests and diseases don’t get the chance to disembark. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 5/25/23 |  You do what?! - Where's Wally? | Tim Day spends his work days clambering though gorse and blackberry looking for signs of wallabies.
