    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.
    Thanks mate.

    I can't speak for the east coast but it is my experience on the west coast as well.
    Fuck all nannies and groups of bulls competing for bugger all. Brooming and smashing their head gear up on rocks etc.
    There is an umbalance imo due to AATH and Doc culling. We have noticed it getting worse since AATH become legal
