Thread: WTF. B FA LEFT SOON.

Just found this on FB deer stalking group.. Is this for real? NZ has been taken over by a green dictatorship with no brains or brakes. Anybody know what is happening if this is correct.?

The green party is an introduced species.

Not good.

Hmm - I feel some OIA requests coming on, this needs smoking out . . . .

Rest of the item not shown in the above screenshot...


6. The Department is working with Ngati Porou and Te Whanau a Apanui to co-design
the project in the Raukumara.

7. Given that the distribution of deer and their impacts are not uniform across the country,
a multi-tiered regional based approach working with iwi, landowners, local recreational
hunters and the commercial deer industries such as wild animal recovery operators
and hunting guides will be required.
This allows each plan to be developed for the particular circumstances of each region
and identify the resources to deliver the outcomes required ecologically, culturally and
socially at that place.

8. There are two main themes for consideration which will likely require different
approaches in developing the plans forward;

a) The front country The build-up of wild deer herds on farm/forest margins in
lowlands and front country around bush remnants, covenants and reserves has
been consistently identified as a key issue. Landlocked small reserves and
private forest remnants are considered to have become safe havens for deer
breeding, with ready access to adjacent pasture.
Developing plans for these areas will require a collaborative approach with
Treaty Partners, landowners, regional councils and other stakeholders.
Access for hunters into many of these areas has often been identified as a key
issue to work upon in Stage 2 of the project.

b) The back country On public conservation land in the large forest and national
parks, monitoring of both deer populations and their ecosystem impacts has not
been prioritised in recent years. This absence of data on population trends, size
and ecological impacts reduces the quality of discussions between stakeholders,
and hampers good decision making around solutions in our large National and
Forest Parks in many parts of the country.
Developing cost-effective techniques to assess changes in ungulate abundance
and ecosystem health will be a priority for stage two of the project.
Developing plans for the backcountry areas in each region would be undertaken
with our Treaty Partners and in collaboration with other stakeholders.

9. The Department has no plans to fence small pockets of bush as a solution to the deer
concerns currently identified as that approach would prove costly and ineffective in
achieving any lasting outcomes.

10. A report of the findings will be made available at the end of June and this will form the
basis for the next stage of the project to develop the preferred response. Establishing
the preferred approach is due to be completed by the end of the year.
Section 4 Conservation Act

11. This issue is important to iwi. Their perspectives cover the full spectrum of the
positives and negative values of deer. It will be important to work with each Treaty
Partner to develop specific plans for their rohe or takiwā.
Conclusion

12. We are looking for solutions that will materially improve how deer are managed in the
New Zealand landscape to achieve better ecological, cultural, recreational and
economic outcomes.

13. Front country and backcountry will require different approaches to developing plans in
Stage 2 of the project.

14. The Raukumara project will be a valuable pilot for co-designing large scale forest
restoration projects with Treaty Partners.

15. This work is critical in improving ecosystems and preventing the deer from expanding
into areas such as Northland that remains free of wild deer.

Thanks @cambo for the link in the other thread.

The current minister is hopefully gone in a few weeks, but that probably won't stop this.
IF there is actually an increase in abundance, not letting us hunt in the first round of level 3 didn't help, and is their fault

"The department has no plans" usually means they have already paid the guy who is going to do the work... In my experience.

That's exactly what's happening with the Raukumara's.

I'll clean out the Raukumaras for $40,000,000.
I just need a cash advance of $10,000,000 to get started. any other bidders.

The perfect solution to deer overabundance?

Semi-automatic rifles!

I don't why they want to turn the clock back to a pre-human massive Avery.Hopefully the Greens will be out this election but DOC is still stacked with twig and tweet fanatics.

The money doesn't filter down to the ones who live off the land.

If all the things the gubbermint should be spending our money on now , I struggle to see how this even gets a mention

#11 YOU FELLAS MISSING THE POINT HERE......ALL partners..that means what it says...it wasnt just fellas with brown bums who signed the treaty it was a treaty for ALL K1K1s so any approach that just listens to brown bums is rascist plain and simple and needs to be called out as such.

and I use the term brown bums as maori means native...and Im native....yet not considered in same category.
