All 14 Greenpeace protesters who boarded a goods ship carrying palm kernel in the Port of Tauranga on Wednesday have been removed, police say.
The protesters boarded the Hong Kong-registered freighter East Ambition from a small boat on Wednesday morning, heavy themselves to cranes and the anchor , preventing the ship from docking.
They were protesting Fonterra's importation of palm kernel (PKE) for use as stock feed because of its role in the obliteration of rainforests, predominantly in Malaysia and Indonesia.
Police used a crane and cage and were raised to the height of four storeys to cut the cables that joined the protesters to the ship's steel cables extending from its cranes.
