NZ is unique in that we have all these introduced "game animals" no predators other than ourselves, very small ranges of some species, globaly rare/hard to hunt species all classed as pests with no limits or guidelines on what to shoot or not shoot.
Then you have the "kill every mammal with 4 legs" idealist who want to turn NZ back into how it was before humans arrived.
And the complete other extreme the "anti every control measure"
Both of which are nutters and should be treated as such as you back out the hut door and go pitch your biv a safe distance away.
The majority of NZ hunters sit somewhere in the middle, we generally have no animosity towards foreign hunters in fact quite the opposite we like to show off how bloody good we have it.

Just one thing that pisses us off is not getting ballots because foreign hunters flood the ballot for our land and our animals, In my opinion balloted blocks should only be open to NZ citizens and there mates(wherever the mates come from is irrelevant)
Hope you enjoy your trip to the land of the long red tape and if I can help you out I am happy to.....except with a ballot.
