Of all of the threats we face to our sport, keeping deer out of northland is probably the hardest one to argue against. Emotional responses wont cut it. And I see that NZDA are keeping out of the argument - good job.

I wasn't saying that deer in northland are a good thing or that they shouldn't be culled. I should have been more specific, I was under the impression that the people who knew which bits of private land had a red deer population on them were not publicizing it for obvious reasons. It sure is a long drive to taupo for northlanders that's for sure
