As Staffnurse41 says they can be cagey as. Did some culling of Arapawa Island sheep years ago and do the odd bit of wild sheep culling on stations to stop them breeding with and introducing unwanted genes into main flock. Wild ones seem to have a sixth sense and know when you’re around. Miss a shot and let them get away and they can be a challenge to get onto again. Been more than one hunter get their arse kicked by wild sheep and cattle on Chatham Islands taking it too easy.
