You know, no gun turrets, razor wire, mine fields. Kinda like your border along the Rio Grande.

Hey, Craig, where did they get the elk stock in order to breed with their local red deer? I didn't know NZ had elk in addition to red deer.
I shot a red deer hind (what females are called) on a ranch here in Texas once. Probably weighed around 300 lbs., basically a solid red colored miniature elk.

Like all other mammals over there Ted they imported them for sportsman. I believe I was told the stock came from the US.
Over there they call them by the Indian name - Wapiti.

Beautiful pic Wes!! Looks a lot like the Roosevelt Elk we have here in Cali.
I agree with Merc; I've been learning a whole lot on this site, from optics to wildlife. Edited by mike650 - July/22/2008 at 11:31 |
