Deer
Deer Like most of our game, deer were introduced to New Zealand as both a source of food and sport.
Fortunes have been made and lost in the venison trade, with both live and dead animals, as prices fluctuated wildly over the years. Deer have conversely been described as a pest and a godsend, depending whether you are a greenie or a hunter.
