Thread: Pureora 1080d yet ?

You'd think that the date being pushed back so far would be counter-productive for their aims at supporting the reduction of deer numbers - it will stuff up the 'roar' hunt in terms of hunters willing to go in. The numbers of parties getting dropped in by air taxi will be down I'd think so those outfits will be pissed off too. My understanding is the initial whack to deer numbers is in the first month, then the baits are no longer palatable for deer and with the higher than usual numbers everywhere around that area the migration back in will probably make good any losses in the first few months. Followed by a roar period without the usual hunting pressure - things will be good for the deer I would think and not so for the forest???
