Thread: Hunting in NZ, is it too easy?

That's a true point but they can still do that without shooting our animals for free.
How many of these tourist hunters load up there suit cases with meat or do they eat it before they leave.
There are plenty of game farms and private places for them to hunt with a guide or if they are lucky somebody will take them for a hunt.
I have no idea on numbers but I don't think there would be to many country's in the world who would let any tourist hunt for free.
