Many boats have got into trouble along its length, as the river flows quite quickly with grade-3 rapids, so the main boats that use the river are commercial jetboats.[1] There is a {{convert|157|m|ft|adj=on}} drop from the source at Lake Hauroko to the mouth, which empties into Foveaux Strait.[2] There is an active stoat and rat trapping programme set up along the length of the river and maintained by locals.[3] Possums were plentiful in the area as early as 1900.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wjet.co.nz/ |title=Wairaurahiri Jet - Wairaurahiri Jet |publisher=Wjet.co.nz |date= |accessdate=2015-06-18}} 2. ^{{cite web|author=Shirley Whyte |url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/southland-times/news/7945577/Jet-boats-strike-trouble-on-Wairaurahiri-River |title=Jet boats strike trouble on Wairaurahiri River |publisher=Stuff.co.nz |date=2012-11-14 |accessdate=2015-06-18}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wjet.co.nz/index.php?pageLoad=105 |title=Wairaurahiri Jet - Wairaurahiri Jet |publisher=Wjet.co.nz |date= |accessdate=2015-06-18}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/OW19000614.2.81.1|title=ROUND ABOUT PRESERVATION.
