It will most likely be an escapee from a deer farm or the off spring of an escapee. I took a balloon ride from Helensville to Dairy Flat a few years back and saw quite a big stag by itself on farm land just before (and bordering) the Riverhead Forest. I had one yearling stag get out about ten years back. He gapped it to the other side of SH 16 never to be seen again.
Was south of Tokoroa right on dusk, SH1 on what I call tarpot hill. Car coming towards me flashed its lights and as I came thru a cutting there was a hind about to run across the road, she turned very quickly and ran back into the pines, quite often see pigs on the side of the road thru there
I have heard of Fallow down as far as Whatipu
After just watching 60mins.....it was More than likely a police Dog chasing a local........:XD:Quote:
