In this episode Roy Sloan, General Manager, of the Fiordland Wapiti Foundation says for the first time in ages he is content...because we got permission from Lou and Peter Berryman to use their cover of the Dem Deer song.
He and Adam Fairmaid, President of the Fiordland Wapiti Foundation, talk about Herds of Special Interest and the announcement by Hunting and Fishing Minister James Meager of draft plans for Wapiti and Sika herds to be managed.
he Herds of Special Interest, also know as HOSI, to be managed HOSI at the Sika Show in Hamilton’s Mystery Creek, New Zealand’s largest hunting trade event.
Meager said the proposal is for a new approach to managing wapiti deer in parts of Fiordland National Park and sika deer in the Kaimanawa and Kaweka forest parks.
“These changes will allow hunter-led conservation groups to sustainably manage herd numbers and create opportunities to drive economic growth in those areas".
Roy and Adam talk about reaction from the conservation sector, what a HOSI would possibly mean for deer herds going forward, they call on hunters to submit on the plan, and more.
