Thread: Sambar Deer Wanganui.

Just had a mate ring he's been travelling New Zealand back roads on his motorbike for 2 months. As well as seeing a lot of Fallow and Red deer he had a close encounter with 2 Sambar deer a few K from Jerusalem. He has hunted them so knows what they were, they milled around on the road for 10 seconds before jumping up a bank. He thought they were only up North and around Foxton, Bulls area. Have they always been up the Wanganui river area?
