    Hi Guys,

    When I contacted Maurice these were his direct details:
    Maurice Wilke mwilke@doc.govt.nz
    Biodiversity Ranger
    Department of Conservation—Te Papa Atawhai
    DDI: +64 7 349 8212

    He also suggested a nearby Rotorua Farmer, Tony Carr (who's farm backs onto the DOC land at Okataina) - who has a hut that he rents out to hunters and has Wallabies for shooting on his private land and the DOC land. If you PM me I'll send you his contact phone details.

    CD.

    Good on Ya CD. I've lived in rottenrua for nearly 40 years & I'm still learning something new. I'll try a PM for the info as I get quite a few people asking where they can go to shoot these little suckers.

    Another titbit of info for locals is: If you're a local NZDA member you can get permission to go into Okataina with a rimfire after wallabies. NOT maori chicken!!!!

    Pay to double check with maurice to ensure that these rules still apply. No doubt proven membership to other NZDA branches may qualify as well???? Just don't shoot any Takahe,eh!!!!!!!!!
