Thread: Tahr numbers?

Watching with interest......

Im hoping to head south sometime in the school holidays in the hope that both my son and I can shoot our first tahr.

So also very interested in what you regular tahr hunters have to say about numbers.

Hey rumpy, this is too easy to be honest . Head up one of the river valleys walking or driving if you can untill you see some tahr . They aren’t there in the numbers they used to be of course . But put in the time on the glass and you will find at least some Nannie’s to make a plan for . There will be tahr up the Jollie for sure just keep going til you see some . As for the roundhill ski field in tekapo I’ve been to that ski field a few times and not seen a tahr up there . I didn’t put in a huge effort looking all the same . So Hopkins , ahuriri , Macauley godley , Rangitata there’s tahr in them all just got to get into it .
