To answer your question about identifying the difference between a hind of breeding age and a yearling. The biggest difference is size they will be smaller than an average sized hind in the area....

When you see the state of some of our forest parks...

Nice. Good spread on him. Let us know what the length and spread is if you get the chance to put a tape on him.

If it was me I would get the skull back from the taxidermist and give it to someone with the credentials to evaluate it on the withey system. Then at least he will know for certain. There is...

It's a bit bloody rough that the northern Rimutaka's and the Haurangi's are being done in the same year, especially considering the postponement of the southern Rimutaka drop from last year to this...

Nice write up mate. He will be bloody good eating.
