    I ask because I reckon Sika numbers in eastern kawekas are getting really high too. If you're seeing numbers like this in the Kaimanawas as well, it's great for hunters, at the moment, but a worry going forward. Over population won't be good for anyone. Shoot em up lads!

    There could be 100 to the acre and the little buggers would still be smarter than me.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I know what you are saying but don't think its overpopulated by any means, its more a matter of covering the right areas. Between Ben and I id say we have hunted the general area for the equivalent of 3-4 months straight possibly even more which gives a massive advantage, as you know what areas are worth hunting and which are not.
