Meat hunting in New Zealand

New Zealand Safaris

Management & Meat Hunts

A limited time opportunity

Professionally guided hunts typically catering to the international market — this is an opportunity to hunt, and learn some new skills, on private land.

Organic Meat From Our Own Wild Back Yard

Outside of our main trophy hunting season we also offer some limited meat hunting adventures for both hunters and non hunters as part of our game management, which are also professionally guided experiences based out of Fairlie, in the South Island.

This is a great way for those that want to go out to gather organic meat from our own wild back yard.

Game Management on Private Land

We hunt our game on private land. These huge properties are working sheep and cattle operations as well as supporting many wild animals. And as part of this they not only have to be managed but also given a value, as they are taking away grasses that commercial livestock also need. This then starts a cycle of game management which we are proud to be a part of, which is unfortunately drastically lacking on government land.

From our full time All Seasons hunting lodge we can base all of our experiences out of here, hunting both meat and trophy hunts for all the South Island game, or private cabins on stations if preferred.

All our properties are privately owned & exclusive to New Zealand Safaris.

Not only does your safety come first, but you can be assured of professionalism and an experience that includes some amazing scenery and privately owned properties that the general public do not have access to.

Who It Suits

This could suit a family wanting to learn more about meat hunting, general hunting skills, stalking, skinning, meat preparation, through to firearms and safety. Also hunters wanting meat for the freezer and to provide for their families, or trophy hunters that want to finally go after a mature trophy animal away from public land. We also cater for groups of hunters wanting to head away for a weekend to enjoy themselves.
