With support from the Department of Conservation and NZ Tahr Foundation, the GAC has developed a Tahr Ballot Briefing through Better Hunting, our online hunter training platform.
The briefing is designed to help hunters achieve the goals of the tahr ballot and make the most of this unique hunting opportunity. It covers key information on tahr selection, conservation, safety and more.
We are trialling the briefing in March 2025. All 2025 successful ballot applicants and their hunting parties are being asked to complete the briefing prior to entering their ballot. The briefing will be made public later this year to support the tahr ballot application process.
