Poll: 🚁 Is it time for a more aggressive national strategy for managing wild deer, or should we lean into local hunting communities?
Journalist Nikki Macdonald recently highlighted a growing crisis in Fiordland National Park: the devastating impact of surging deer numbers.
In a place as unique as Fiordland, the damage to native flora can take decades to undo. There are plenty of "cooks in the kitchen" suggesting solutions, from increased commercial harvesting to aerial control or hunter-led initiatives.
We want to know what you think: How should we tackle deer control in our most sensitive conservation areas?

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
31.4% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
67.1% No, I enjoy it
-
1.4% Other - I'll share below
