    Yea and it was pretty evident that when we were in there. Saw 4 mature stags and probably about 10 spikers, and on two occasions saw spikers holding hinds. Definitely were more stags about but there...

    Yea had heard a bit about that before we went in. We only found our evidence on the last afternoon of the trip. But to be fair we’d already seen plenty of deer so wasn’t too much of a concern

    Stocky liked post by gimp On thread : the OFF TOPIC to Stags shot 21 (discussion of wild animal management)
    I agree, I should have stated that it is perceived to be free management of wild animals. It is unclear based on current evidence what impact WARO has on wild animal numbers on PCL c.f. recreational...

    Yep we're on the same page I think. I'm more talking about areas that are already out of control numbers wise. Shooting everything certainly isn't necessary in every scenario but in areas like...

    Ungulates in NZ require management of some kind under current legislation to minimise impacts on native biodiversity. To maintain the social license for preserving a huntable population of any...

    Probably depends what circles you talk hunting in. There are a lot of hunters who hunt these areas regularly but don't talk on social media or forums. WARO's Closed through the roar ballot period...

    This is a good listen for a social science perspective on understanding how non-hunters feel about various arguments for hunting, which is important for maintaining our social license to preserve...

    Stocky liked post by kbrebs On thread : the OFF TOPIC to Stags shot 21 (discussion of wild animal management)
    Was wondering if this perspective would pop up. This thread has a lot of talk of game management but none of habitat management or conservation, one hind is worth 5 stags etc. As hunters we need to...

    To me it seems easier to sell "you might be able to keep hunting in the future" rather than "antlers will be bigger" as a reason for a particular management strategy even to hunters - witness the...

    Antler quality for trophy hunting is not a good sell to the general non-hunting public as a reason for game animal management. It's a non-starter. The words "Trophy Hunting" bring to mind all the...

    I take the ribs off either side and then split into smaller racks. Braise in the oven or parboil for a few hours, with a rub or a braising liquid, then finish on the charcoal grill (BBQ or under the...
