Better Hunting is two years old! What do you want from it or NZ hunter education next? Share your ideas about improving hunter education in New Zealand. Have your say and make sure what you would find useful is on the radar.
Complete the Better Hunting learner survey here.
Bonus: For 2025 we’re trialing expanding the survey beyond education to every aspect of NZ hunting. Few people speak up, so please do – your voice is louder than you might realise.
Hunting trends 2025
Hunting trends is our annual refresher on all things hunting, built to keep you up to date even if you don’t check your socials. This year we’ve gone mobile-first, so it’s easier than ever to complete on your phone.
Complete the Better Hunting 2025 Hunting trends quiz here.

Incase you missed these upgrades…
Multi-map improvements
We added ShadeMap and neu0 link-outs to our multi-map hunt planning resource.
ShadeMap helps you visualise the sun’s passage and where shadow will fall on terrain during the day. This is handy for anticipating game locations, particularly in winter. Neu0 provides another way to visualise snowfall in an area.
Pesticide information tool
Our new pesticide information tool does the date calculations on pesticide caution periods so you don’t have to, as well as providing visuals of buffer zones.
Prize draw conditions: You must complete both the 2025 Hunting Trends and user survey before 1 December 2025 to be in to win the draw. The winner will be emailed at the email address registered to their Better Hunting account. If no response is received within five business days a new winner will be re-drawn.
