Thread: Puke or Pukeko?

A well known fact that the pukekos eat ducklings and duck eggs.

So why have them on the game bird list? They should be a bloody pest not a game bird.

Never eaten one as I'm to well fed.:

Got this pic from F&G tonight of a pukeko carrying away a duckling. They no its a predator why have it as a game bird?



Don't forget that the harrier hawk is on partially protected list now so shoot the fkers if they are worrying your birds,or stock.
