Arthurs Pass is north of the Tahr Area boundary, so any tahr reported, seen, found etc are shot by DoC. DoC may even still have their Judas tahr programme going. Over the years the occasional bull has been shot in the AP region, but winter aint the right time to find wandering bulls. Need to be earlier, from about mid march through to about mid may, when the bulls are on the wander looking for nannies. They've pretty much found them now, so your chances of actually bumping in to one are pretty remote.
