    It,s been pointed out to them once or twice on there facebook page , they are getting a roasting !! im surprised they haven't taken it down , what a shame they didn't pull the pin earlier , obviously as has been pointed out they have done there 3 days flying , seems pathetic when you look at it like that all the anguish , frustration its caused to the thousands that hold Tahr in high regard , the fund raising , court action , protest action not to mention all the small business that relied upon those animals and to trash everyone's resource for 3 days work , probably had another 3 days lined up in the NP too but whip dee doo , fuck them I wont forget and on that note a separate thread should be put together to support those that did not partake in the cull , its not too often I fly in but when work finishes im going to make sure I plan a trip and support those companys .

    Will there be anything left worth flying in for?
    Never been to SI, have been planning my first Tahr/Cham trip this summer for over a year now. This control program took a bit of the wind out of me sails.

    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.

    Iv always wanted to go for a chammy over on the west coast hopefully they have left them alone ? , its a bit more rugged over there compared to the vast openness of the east coast country so likely there will be a few Tahr left down in the scrub & bush too though chammy will be the main target .

    Am planning to go to West coast too, suits my bush rat style better than east.
