    I can't recall ever seeing feral turkeys here in Golden Bay (excluding some of the locals) or anywhere else I've been in the South Island.
    I used to shoot a few for meat in the BOP when I lived there but it wasn't much of a challenge.

    Same with feral peacocks. Maybe it's too cold for them to breed up like they do in the North Island.

    Golden Bay has essentially no rabbits or magpies, and it can be hard to even find a possum after all the AHB and DOC operations over the years.
    Plenty of hares on the dairy farms though.
