Awesome work boys

[@grantkilmore9167]

As usual mate great video Didn’t see you knocking over some of those nannies. Hope you did tip a few over especially given there’s far too many around that spot

[@altitudehunting]

Hey Grant, cheers for the comment, yeah we shot 7 animals in total but even that would have hardly made a dent in the numbers, but if everyone takes a few in these highly populated areas it's going to help get it to a manageable level. Cheers

[@chrispyskiwiadventures3583]

Far out you guys walk some Kms. Great to see the numbers getting back up there. Another epic vid bro🤙🤙

[@altitudehunting]

Cheers Chrispy, yeah there are plenty around out there at the moment, Cheers.

[@johnmead8437]

Great to see they are severely destroying (or have destroyed) the environment?

[@NickRattray]

[@madfisherman10lb]

it took me a few minutes to recognise the spots - man they look different without snow and ice.

[@altitudehunting]

Yeah mate, the tahr change colour greatly throughout the year. Cheers

[@hannosnyman8184]

Great video Johny! Does Hunter's Element make a full body gaiters because some places have man sized Spaniards! : )

[@altitudehunting]

[@craigmckenzie384]

Numbers building up in there again. You need a"possum stick" as well in your kit.

[@altitudehunting]

Cheers mate, yeah or i just need to be a bit faster with the buggers, Cheers.

Another great video from this channel and thank you for sharing your adventure. As a 70-year-old and one who has been shooting since a kid. I only came to centrefire hunting in the last five years as most of my hunting was with muzzle loading shotguns, but twenty years ago, I bought my first ML rifle and once I could hit what I was aiming at, I started hunting. Check out kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3vEh5mDfdlmabc Now looking to see/shoot my first Tahr and Chamois, as a retiree, no helicopters for me, I try to drive in as far as I can, then take these old legs as far as they will go. Planning a trip into central Canterbury once the kids are back in school and a get a weather break for a couple of days. I have my private land permission and the DOC block looks promising. Looking forward to more of your Sth Island adventures.

[@altitudehunting]

Thank you very much, good on you for getting out there. And best of luck with your adventures into the mountains down here. Cheers

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

I know the two thumbs just got a clean up but doc shouldnt be taking bulls out, especially in full cape as its easy to distinguish them. Grrr

[@johnmead8437]

Rechunters have had 30 years to demonstrate they can contribute to pest population maintenance prescribed according to the agreed to Tahr Plan. And the target has not been met.

[@altitudehunting]

Hey Stan, I'm not actually sure how the bull died, there wasn't a noticeable bullet hole in it, hope your going well mate.

[@altitudehunting]

Hey John yeah I agree, the tahr population is pretty uncontrollable by recreational hunters, we shot 7 animals on this trip in total but that didn't make the smallest dent in the numbers, we have done over nighters to locations and spotted over 240 tahr, it's crazy! Cheers

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

@altitudehunting true, I shouldn't assume. Good stuff man, really enjoy your channel as well. Just good down to earth trips. 👌👍😊

[@hardantlerhunting9691]

@altitudehunting sheesh that's crazy numbers.
