The pig hunter reported missing in the Wairarapa earlier this evening has been found.
Two men were hunting in Waiohine Gorge in Tararua Forest Park earlier today and became separated when one of them started chasing a pig.
Police and search and rescue volunteers assembled to search for the missing hunter.
However, while the team was preparing to mount a search, the hunter walked out of Waiohine Gorge.
He is cold but otherwise fine.
Police would like to thank search and rescue volunteers for responding to the call for help.
While officers are pleased the hunter is safe and well, Police remind anyone going into the bush to always wear appropriate clothing for the environment and conditions.
