G'Day Fella's,

And thanks for your input.

My biggest gripe is that these Game Animals were introduced into NZ, for Sportsmen and Women.
Some Lazy or Old Fart getting flown around harassing the animal until it is exhausted, then shooting it, I personally find offensive! (Apparently, two clients have already been killed, doing this, such is life!).

The lack of ethics with regard to the way these animals are taken is something else, as the game deserve better!
I don't have a problem with W.A.R.S. (that's business, not hunting) to control excess numbers of game or flying into and out of hunting blocks, for the purpose of on foot hunting.
Heli-Hunting is nothing more than Value Adding to the worth of a wild game animal, regardless of the ethics (or lack of), involved in taking the game animal.
And just so some Lazy or Old Fart can hang it on the wall and then lie through his back teeth, about how he got it!
NZ has more game parks than you can poke a stick at, let these same shooters go there!
The Heli-Boys will get their share from live capture of the animals, to stock the game parks!

As to Heli-Hunting, NZ's game animals deserves better!!!
