Well bud there should be a bit of imfo in regards to the so called interior etc,well there was.. atleast.
Back in those so called good ol days myself and two other hunter types did a wee walk and observe from one end of the Island through to the other.Almost two weeks was spent tramping around and trying to keep on course. There were deer like yi say in from the coast and out to the edge.
The deer we bumped into every day were not only shocked to see us but were that bloody nosey would come in close while getting our scent.
Deer were reasonably thick in the interior, calm,,ok condition but actually quiet stupid.
When our so called trip finally ended we were slightly poked as to speak,bush sores etc.
Yes..the grey ghosts were of a totally different nature in the middle.
