I’m not sure where AATH nanny culls feature in the above stats - part of the DoC cull stats or the 1000 guided animals taken.

Don't worry its not NZD$14,000 for a trophy bull these days. If it was imagine the gold rush. In the 90's it was $10,000 but trophy prices have come down and flying machine rates have gone up.
