Tuhoe banishes hunters in Urewera | Stuff.co.nz
It didnt take them long to stop hunting. So much for no changes to access.
FFS
Scribe has started a thread about this as well.
As a English kiwi I don't recognise the authority Maori think they have and will continue to hunt until advised my the crown
That be fair right? As Maori say they don't recognise the crown
"shit heads" in their anyway ! (....... & in more ways than one):pissed off:
This really sucks. And with all the reassurance of how this will not affect access for New Zealanders. What a load of shit.
Why would you void current permits through a change over unless your aim was to keep hunters out.
Would be surprised if the new permits are free. I for one will not pay a cent to hunt the Urewera.
Wait for it, wait for it. You will have to pay. It will be turned into a money making exercise by Tuhoe because its !!!theirs!!!, so it stands to reason that anything on their land is theirs including the pigs and deer. Get ya wallets out. I wonder how they will police a permit system? DOC couldn't manage it. Maybe they will have heavys roaming the bush looking for hunters that don't have permits. That could be interesting.
Tuhoe don't think they have control they know it and it is NZ law that Tuhoe control access to Te Urewera so just get used to it and if you want a good out come work with them on it.
Those that will consider poaching the area should read what has happened to several Hunters in the South Island
1/ Banned for two years from all the decent hunting areas (not just the property the poached)
2/ Confiscate firearms and vehicles
3/ Fines and court costs
Give it time guys, there seems to be some who are getting a bit too excited.
Let the Shared Goveranance model and supporting admin required sort itself out.
Same thing in Auckland regarding the Maunga settlement for the volcanoes. Taking ages to get sorted, so as a result no one has budgets and staff sorted to replace signs, approval for events (even school girls filming) has to go to full Maunga Board.
They will sort it eventuallu, just takes time.
When they finally have systems in place to administer permits and hunters are in fact banned from Te Urewera, then complain.
Or if hunting is allowed and we do have to pay, we may have to just suck it up.
Yip people need to read the facts and stop reacting on speculation and looking like dicks
