    I dont see that there are 'too many' deer in Canterbury. I know for a fact that each spring the Wallis's fly through all the RHA Waro areas in the Rakaia and North Ashburton and knock the deer right back. Bill Hales shoots the rest.
    I have seen a lot more deer overseas than Canterbury, Fallow in South Canty would be the exception.

    The over population definitely doesn’t apply to everywhere. Where places like Canturbury could get benefit from a management plan for the future would see things like a cap on the amount that can be shot by helicopter per area so you maintain the right number of healthy animals for their environment and then actually determine what they are allowed to shoot as part of those numbers. Such as no stags, but hinds as an example etc. A FWF type model for example. A solution that maintains commercial interest whilst also benefiting the recreational interest.
