I had the same thought the first time I watched this.

I know of some pack goats in action with success.. local DOC are in the loop and okay with it.
Yep but you would need a window between you and them while in transport! Our windscreen wipers on the inside and wearing of a rain coat while driving:O_O: spitting as a defence mechanism god sure was nuts when he invented this one:thumbsup:
I wonder how they would go in the roar, would some second rate stag try to round them up :XD:
Yep, we had exactly the same thought too. Bloody awesome.
I reckon they are the next thar. Let a few go into the southern alps and let them breed for a bit. Start hunting them and evolution will change them from the dumb arses they are now into a cunning quarry. Let some Emu's go into the lowland bush to replace the moas.
Attachment 64160apparently there's some in Te Urewera..
I laughed my ass off when I first saw that...Quote:

There are llama tours run out of hanmer springs. Tuck the lead rope through your belt and they follow along like a horse. Tour isn't aimed at hunters but I imagine it's the same as dogs, start them on a suppressed 22 before letting a braked 30cal + off beside them
Same number of chops just a bit bigger, giraffes only have 7 vertebrae. Now there is a serious neck chop, would need a bigger slow cookerQuote:

There are some Alpacas just down the road Stug. Will they do you?
Actually @Rushy I would prefer pack goats but I can't really see DoC being keen on wandering Arthurs Pass with 4 goats in tow!
