Thread: Newb after areas around chch or Cant.

Join ChCh branch of NZDa. We have lots of trips incl winter bunnies.
Club trips lead to contacts with stations and also joining others at their spots every so often.

You can also apply for DOC small game permit and get into some hares (during the day) in some locations.
Bunnies locations close to Chch are hard to find, too many small lifestyle blocks, flat land and dairy farms. North and south door knock on properties bordering on hills and river beds. Bunnies love the cover of old woolsheds, macrocarpa hedges and riverbeds.

I take my boy out too, when he can be bothered to put down the ipod or not go out with his mates. I found getting the first contact hard as digging for gold but once I got one place, it was a lot easier to get reccomendations from there. If you're prepared to drive door knock up around the Ashley, Okuku, oxford, ashburton areas. Make up a small card with contact details and even if you get a refusal ask them to take the card and pass it on if they meet someone who has a few rabbits around.
