One of my cobbers who is a vet and anti 1080 says deer and the like just curl up and go to sleep then die.
I have no idea as I have never seen a deer dying from 1080.
I remember seeing around 10 dead deer 3 days after a drop in the Landsborough that appeared to do just that.
The week before we counted 42 deer on the same flat a couple hours before dark. To my knowledge the place has never recovered deer wise.

I have only seen a couple and they most certainly didn't look to have died in their sleep.

Ones I have seen have kicked themselves in the guts, bled from mouth and nose and thrashed the ground while dying.
As far as I know, deer have been in the Hunua's since I was at high school early 60's and some culling took place around then.
