Thread: Should the Pukeko have its gamebird status removed in the North Island?

westcoast F&G frequently have drives on em.
Dean Kelly the manager told me a tale of a cockie who rang him with a major Puke problem ,that wasnt cured by said cockies habit of using his .270 to remove them from trees(why am I not suprised ;expensive ?????) dean got it sorted(with DOC coast style), organised some shooters who promptly went through the farms pukes like shit through a goose.
Those who've done the grey valley duckhunt will recall Deans call for shooters to go to a well known property in the upper reaches of the ahaura valley and deal to the blue bellied bastards!this is in place of church on the sunday morning and the inevitable shennanigans on the saturday night at the moonlight hall.
me Ill smack em if i get a chance,as ive a bloke at work who luvs puke soup!
