An investigation is under way after 700 kilos of rat poison spilled into a large fresh water lake on Anchor Island, in Fiordland.
The poison was being transported in a storage pod by helicopter for a rat eradication operation but the pod became detached mid-flight and fell into the lake.
The Department of Conservation says it will be monitoring the lake to see if the spill has any ecological impact. The island is home to endangered Kakapo

A storage pod full of brodifacoum cereal pellet baits fell from a helicopter yesterday and landed in the large freshwater lake on the 1300ha island in Dusky Sound, Conservation Minister Kate Wilkinson said.
Eight hectares of land surrounding the lake has been searched and no pellets have been found.
"Two kakapo in the vicinity of the lake have been removed to another island as a precaution. It is highly likely all the poisoned baits landed in the lake.
