Chamois
Chamois A native to central and southern Europe and a member of the antelope family, chamois were introduced into New Zealand in 1907.
Released in the Mount Cook area they adapted to their new habitat with ease, and without natural predators their population exploded. Many animals are shot from helicopters and on foot by recreational hunters in an effort to control their numbers.
There are no chamois in the North Island; their natural habitat is the steep, inaccessible, southern-alpine mountain ranges. With the increase in numbers, resident herds have been found in the lowlands of the West Coast and in the forests behind Kaikoura.
