    She doesn’t know shit. Specifically these facts:

    -nothing wrong with planting native forest but it’s not the greatest option from a carbon sequestration point of view. Introduced tree species are a lot more efficient at this
    -mature native forest is a carbon sink but is generally net zero when it comes to sequestration i.e. the CO2 taken out of the atmosphere for growth is about equal to that released from rotting vegetation
    -our forests can cope with low (arguably moderate) browsing pressure. They have made this adaptation well before deer arrived. What the fuck does she think the Moa did?
    -game animals are unlikely to ever be eradicated, barring some type of future biological/genomic warfare breakthrough. Control is the solution for the foreseeable future
    -to suggest we can get our “fix” from tramping is bullshit. She hasn’t experienced the thrill of the hunt, the adrenalin, or sense of accomplishment when you cleanly take an animal and can fill the freezer with prime protein. Tramping has it’s merits but ultimately doesn’t come close
    -hunters don’t want out of control game animal populations either. No one wants a defoliated understory and heaps of skinny deer

    Best that she sticks to “public health research”; she has a poor understanding of ecology, introduced animal management, hunting etc.

    Sadly the poor lady thinks she is on track with what she doesn't really know anything about.
    Let her have her day....the wind will do the rest.
