My thoughts exactly!

I like it that a party is at least thinking about hunters but comments re a boost to the role of the Game Council fill me with bloody horror - its old English Game Warden thinking one had hoped disappeared years ago - some think if deer were managed they could then stroll out into DOC estate and huge stags would be the norm - ha ha ha
