Thread: Two poachers caught 'pillaging' stream

Good result I guess Customary rights yeah right

Poacher sentenced to 12 months jail | Stuff.co.nz

Customary would be native species...not introduced ones. By the sounds of it they have no tribal links to the area.

Yay They got done! Thanks for the update Dundee
I spotted a couple of young poachers close to the Trout Pool in the Kaituna River (lake Rotoiti) and wanted to report them. Unfortunately in those days (mid 1990s) I had no cell phone so I went to ask if I could call Fish and Game from one of the locals houses. The man while initially friendly asked me for a description of the guys. When I did he changed his tune and told me that they were probably his nephews! He stormed off in the direction while telling me to get going and leave his property... Wounder if they were the same pair.

Sounds like the uncle might do more damage than the authorities

I really hope so. He frightened me enough. I did ring Fish and Game, but never heard anything more.

Good Fu*ken Job.

About Bloody Time too.

Hope there's more to come as well.

Cheers

Be good if they started giving serious penalties to poachers of land animals as well as fish!

and started treating deer like a resource (same as trout) rather than a pest. I am sure that's one of the reasons deer poachers get off lightly.

This was caught legaly and will satify my hunger.

Looks like one that I own that sings " DONT WORRY BE HAPPY" and EVERY LITTLE SONG.......?

must be a real shit of a day when you tell the pakeha court no juristicion ,cause we only recognise maori authority ,then the local iwi arrives and goes 'hey you theiving bastards -youre not one of ours!" probably a similar sensation to that felt by a certain group in indonesia last week. "this is goin nowhere f....n fast!"
