Thread: Travelling back to NZ from Canada with trophy

Have ought back a couple of deer heads from BC Canada and a bear skin. No problem make sure you have the correct paper work. I had a cities permit for the bear and it was tanned and head and claws on but went through customs no problem , didn't need fumigation as it was already processed. The deer antlers were skull capped and I managed to get them inside my checked luggage and packed clothes etc around them. They required fumigation on arrival and had to be couriered home.
Make sure you cut some hose and tape one on each point to stop the tynes putting holes in your luggage and clothing. For the deer all i had was my licence to hunt and the used tag , may e different now this was 2005/7 when I bought them back but you should e able to find info on the web for export of trophies.
