​CAP2URE is a product brand of Synovus Technology.

We are a New Zealand environmental management business developing and engineering improved products to control pests and manage predators that threaten biodiversity and cause economic damage.

​We are bringing product innovations to market to increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of existing wildlife control technologies and are building this expertise on the years of combined field and engineering experience of our crew.  
​
​Synovus Technology was established as "Wildlife Control Technologies" in July 2014.

Our Name

Our name reflects our purpose.
Synecology is focused on relationships between different animals, and plants, within ecological communities. This includes predation, a deadly interaction that causes the decline of vulnerable populations.
The Greek prefix of 'syn-' means 'united', 'novus' is Latin for 'new', and 'technology' is the application of scientific knowledge. Synovus Technology seeks a new unification for ecological communities unbalanced by predation by using research, innovation and performance to shift the equilibrium of predation to make invasive predators the prey so Earth's wildlife can thrive.

Our Logo


​​Our logo reflects our ecological focus and embodies the famous predator-prey model.

Although developed in a simple ecological community this model provides a great insight into the complex dynamics of predator-prey interactions, especially over long periods of time. You can read more about this famous model here.

​The predator-prey mathematical model was developed by studying, among other species, the numbers of pelts of snowshoe hare and lynx sold annually to the Hudson Bay Trading Company by Canadian fur trappers.

​Lynx hunt snowshoe hares. and their predator-prey cycle moves through four principal modes beginning at the bottom of the graph.
  • ​​In the lower right quadrant increasing numbers of hares along the horizontal axis lead to increasing numbers of lynx on the vertical axis.​
  • In the upper right quadrant the increasing numbers of lynx cause a declining number of hares as the lynx overhunt their prey.
  • In the upper left quadrant the numbers of both hares and lynx decline as the lynx run out of prey and their numbers begin to decrease.
  • ​In the lower left quadrant the number of hares finally begins to recover as a result of reduced lynx predation and surviving hares breed faster than their predator. The lynx continue declining as their recovery lags behind the hares, before the cycle begins again.
