Thread: Goats

Goat's like what they know. They aren't very adventurous in their diet, trending to eat their most preferred food until its gone...then they'll eat the next best thing until its gone...

That's why goats (and deer to a slightly lesser extent) are such bad news for the nz bush. Their selective browsing reduces the forest to a narrow selection of trees that aren't that palatable to their tastes. A stunning example of this would be pepper wood forests like Clements mill rd, the sika don't eat it...so that's all there is left.

So long story short, goats don't tend to eat cereal 1080 as it's to different for them to even want to eat it. Hence why doc still contacts goat hunters.

Cheers KJ,

Took a rifle back to the spot yesterday and for my first time back at the spot since the post and didn't see any of the buggers. Maybe I need to go hunting without my rifle in the future if I actually want to see animals. Bloody murphys law right there

Sounds like my bow I'm sure someone spilt deer repellant on it.
