Was asking a New Zealand hunting on a reddit forum. He said that for several "invasive" species in New Zealand there is no hunting license or tag requirement even for non-residents.

If you know better please correct me. I don't know anything about it, just found it interesting and thought someone on here may find that interesting.

That could be a cool trip...... for a young healthy hiker hunter. Guy said the terrain is pretty tough.

There is no license required for any species in NZ that I’m aware of. Technically speaking every huntable critter down there is invasive.

Nothing is natural there other than their opossums.

Always wanted to go to that part of the world.

Don't know about New Zealand but this could be fun. Feral Donkey hunting in Australia.

I believe you will need a firearm visitors license and a permit to hunt on public land.
Last I heard there was a 12-18 month wait for getting the firearm license. You don't need the license if you hunt under direct supervision of a New Zealand gun license owner.

I worked with a guy a few years ago who was born and raised in NZ. He used to tell me all kinds of stories about hunting there. Said he spent many nights shooting stags out of a boat with a spotlight.

That wouldn’t be any fun. It’d be like shooting fish in a barrel. Much rather get after them DW style.

I had to cancel a Red Stagg trip there about 10 yes ago due to some staffing issues that came up at work. Always thought I would reschedule but, I don’t think I have the stamina now.

Everything was pretty liberal at the time. If you could get yourself and a weapon there, it was a free for all.

From what I heard, you’re better off to use a guide and use one of their guns. It is very tricky over there even if you have one of their gun licenses. It isn’t a very accommodating country for visiting hunters right now.

There is no turkey season or bag limit. Hunt them whenever and kill as many as you can

I for one have ZERO desire to go shoot a donkey.
