Revised Hunting App in Fiordland Emphasizing Safety Measures
In the heart of Fiordland, New Zealand, the Fiordland Wapiti Foundation (FWF) has introduced a groundbreaking app designed to enhance the hunting experience while promoting the conservation of Wapiti deer.
The FWF app, now available on the Foundation's website, is a valuable tool for the approximately 600 hunters who flock to Fiordland during the hunting season in March and April. This app is not limited to hunters; it also caters to those with an interest in hunting or conservation.
One of the key features of the FWF app is the quiz to help identify the age of a Wapiti bull, which can aid in improving hunting skills during the Roar (hunting season). Moreover, the app allows users to submit sightings of Wapiti, native birds, predators, and rubbish, contributing to the breed's management and the overall conservation efforts in Fiordland.
The FWF app is part of the Foundation's efforts to ensure safe, ethical, and regulated hunting of Wapiti deer in Fiordland. It provides information about hunting boundaries, access, and regulations in Fiordland National Park, as the Foundation manages Wapiti populations and controls invasive red deer numbers.
The app also includes safety tips and offline maps, making it an essential companion for those navigating the unforgiving terrain of Fiordland, where rainfall is often measured in meters. Evacuations in the Wapiti area are common due to people underestimating the harsh conditions.
The FWF app, in collaboration with MSC, includes emergency procedures, ensuring that users are prepared for any unexpected situations. Logging sightings of Wapiti deer on the FWF app will help with the breed's management, providing valuable data for sustainable population management and landscape restoration efforts.
The actions of these hunters have "major effects" on the Foundation's management projects, making the FWF app an invaluable resource for those who wish to contribute positively to the conservation of Wapiti deer in Fiordland.
The hunt for Wapiti deer during their rutting season is one of the most desired hunting ballots in the Southern Hemisphere. With the launch of the FWF app, the Foundation aims to make the hunting experience safer, more educational, and more rewarding for all involved.
