    I was driving around some doc200 traps a few days back and this lot were in my way - I stopped and watched as they kept walking up to about 10m away - they don’t seem to have any fear of vehicles - then this bloody rabbit hopped out and scattered them - the big cock bird was watching over his covey - nice to watch them feeding - no wonder they grow so fast as they never stop pecking amongst the greenery

    cool
    does anyone eat them ? I used to see them wandering around the garden in Titirangi (Auckland), back in the early 80s.
    I would say you would want to head shoot them with the 22 so ya didn't lose all the meat from a 12G blast
