#39 The biggest fight for NZ hunting in 60 years - The Forest & Bird lawsuit

I speak to Roy Sloan, General Manager of the Fiorldand Wapiti Foundation about the lawsuit Forest & Bird has brought against the foundation and against the Department of Conservation, and about the consequences it might have for all hunters in New Zealand.

All deer species are introduced into New Zealand.

Hunters say they have to be sustainably managed, with lobby groups saying they have to be removed as much as possible, often via poison bait or by helicopters operators who shoot them, as they destroy native flaura.

FYI folks, we had connectivity issues and the sound is quite poor at times.
