    Did you see bulls holding large groups of nannies or several bulls to very few nannies?

    We were hunting up in the adams wilderness area and had good weather to look over most of the area very well.
    We thought the tahr population was definitely lower than previous visits to the same block.
    There were no large group sizes with 6-8 tahr being the largest groups encountered.

    Have also hunted the Ben Ohau range recently and have seen no evidence of excessive numbers in that area.
    This was a very accessible area where i took my kids for a tahr hunt but have heard it was heavily culled to the point where the locals cant even find a tahr.
    Save our Tahr. They belong in the southern alps.
