    The thing is, that if DOC or whoever really wanted to poison deer they would up the sowing and poison rate in the baits and do what ever was necessary, and absolutely devastate them. Molesworth was a taster, but fortunately OSPRI has backed off that approach. I don't like the by-kill, but its nothing like what would happen if they turned their mind to it eradicating deer.

    The Game Council and NZDA have made good inroads into persuading the authorities to use repellent so we need to do our bit and get on with shooting more hinds when we get the choice or opportunity.
