Yeah +1 great to see some political focus on this issue. Just a pity that Sarah was not armed with more probing questions. Like what data do you have to demonstrate these Tahr numbers are causing real harm ? And why are you hiding behind 25 year old law that is questionable in relevance today ? What are the errors and assumptions in the count ? Why do you have to cull such massive numbers?have you accounted for the big increase in DIC land since retirement of thousands of hectares of high country grazing ? Etc
As it was Mz Parsley got off the hook all too easy

Some of the smart guys here should talk to Sarah to help the right questions get asked
