Thread: Hunting next?

Be interesting to put a number on the tourist dollars that come in as a direct result of overseas hunters and fishers watching YouTube etc. A world class trout fishery and the best free range public land hunting in the world and Doc/Iwi want to punish those who monetize it, by monetizing it themselves.

I'd suggest that the average kiwi hunter/fishers estimate would come in at well under half what the actual income NZ gets from foreign hunters and fishers.

It’s fucking bullshit for lack of a better word would be like local councils charging you for taking photos of your kids on the swing or a slide at the park that’s up kept with rate payer $$$, I assume DOCS tax payer funded and the Te Urewera is a prime Iwi management example
It’s all greed .
