Voice of Reason
Force of Nature
Our Aim
Build a financially sustainable entity to:
Be a friend and mentor to all hunters.
Provide grants to projects and organisations.
Protect New Zealand’s land and water.
Promote innovative and ethical practices.
Collaborate with existing hunter groups and their communities.
Offer wise counsel to key decision-makers.
With the help of our generous benefactors and our hardworking teams at the coalface, together we can protect, enhance and promote New Zealand’s natural environments for hunters and the wider recreational population.
What we do
We see the fine line between nature and nurture.
Hunters have a connection with the outdoors that goes far deeper than recreation. We appreciate the delicate balance between indigenous and introduced species and the impact these creatures have on each other and their various ecosystems, and we see (all too clearly) the role we must play as guardians of this fragile relationship.
