    This pisses me off!

    Came across this video and to be honest, Im surprised that Tim Gale would support it.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbMxYiEeE9w&t=825s

    Ive been speaking too a few members of the NZPHGA over the last weeks, and whats clear is that they recognise that with the reduction of the Tahr herd, Helihunting has become completely unsustainable! That over the next 3 years as the mature bulls that are left either get shot or die naturally, the mature male cohort of the herd is going to collapse. That taking out the numbers of bulls they do and very often the fit young ones that venture where they can be helihunted easily, is quickening that collapse.

    My questions are-

    Why then do they in this vid, put the blame everywhere but there, or mention helihunting is part of the problem?

    Why take such a borderline Bull for the video?

    Ill leave it up too each of you to make your own decision on whether the Chamois and Tahr are being helihunted. I cant prove anything, but the video sure shows aspects that make me beleive they could be.

    Im a big supporter of the GAC, But this disappoints me incredibly. Its the separation of the "industry" and the rest of us that will make the GAC fail.
    Tim, Woody and whirehair like this.
