    I know of one record book sika that escaped from a game park.. walked a couple of km and came back in through a deer trap on the neighbours farm. The owners of the farm were doing a cull and shot him thinking it was a weedy little red and now hes has his name in the record books. As far as i know there are still two more of these escapees still out there..

    Escapees everywhere these days. Not a big deal.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Deer, pigs, goats...these are all fair game on public land. They have to be tagged and contained to be considered farm animals. I've shot a few deer with tags over the years, even shot a 13pt Wapiti in an area that shouldn't have had any deer in it...funny story (totally legit, shot on private land), but I still won't be sharing the details online.

    Cattle and sheep are not fair game however, as these come under separate rules and require notifications in the paper etc etc...

    That's what I believed was the go . They fair game out of the paddock . I know a deer farmer had one of his elks shot just down the road from his deer farm . It would have been clear where it came from , but bloke who shot it didn't do any thing wrong apparently .

    My Wiltshire ram weighs in at 100 kg and the ewes he is covering weigh in at 80 kg.

    Better leave those small ones alone for a while until they get some weight on board.
