Thread: Wild Sheep Arapawa Island

They are not Saxon Merino
Their closest DNA related sheep is the Gulf sheep which in themselves are endangered
The Arapawa type sheep on mainland can not be considered pure unless provenance is proven
Your all experts however.
Just thought I'd raise awareness that the base flock of these sheep which is the mainstay of many trophy hunting and lifestyle flocks is at risk
No different to Fiordland Waps...look at effort that goes there...a deer is a deer right...shoot out all the Stewart island ones...there's some on the mainland.
No different
I've appreciated your input though.
