Thread: Could it be so simple?

Not at all Gravelben, I'm merely saying that if you want a meat animal there is the rest of the year to shoot one, say for example in spring when they are easy work and eating the good stuff, as opposed to going out in a very busy time of year and crowding a finite resource. That's what I believe the original post was about, curbing the 'I have to come home with something mentality' not changing laws. Changing a culture of an entire group. No easy task.


Driving back through the Waioeka gorge from Gisborne this weekend, 25 wagons all at various entry points. Scary

Fair enough, that makes more sense and I have a similar attitude to the roar - I mostly avoid hunting public bush (especially popular areas) at that time, happy to leave it to trophy hunters for a while and reduce my chances of encountering armed idiots.
