Dave Shaw

Win a Hunters Club DVD find out how in this showDave Shaw has over a decade of experience in TV production gained from both home and abroad. With just a handful of hunting trips under his belt, he’d be the first to admit that he doesn’t possess the hunters instinct just yet, although his combination of a BSc in Zoology &amp; years spent in Officer training for the NZ military means he brings a different set of skills to the table. On top of this, Dave also cut his teeth working on the groundbreaking Discovery Channel series FutureWeapons, so he certainly knows how to shoot action!Prior to starting up The Hunters Club, Dave was the lead camera operator and head of post production on the ITM Fishing Show, which rates as one of NZ’s most watched shows in any genre. It was through the show that Dave crossed paths with Dan, and from there they decided that it was high time someone set out to show the general public exactly what makes hunting in New Zealand so very special.https://www.facebook.com/huntersclubnz/http://thehuntersclub.tv

This week Stephen and Christian Co-Host very funny show!! Find out why there is a Batman photo in the slideshow.....Who is Rabbit RangerThey are people who have come together because of a mutual love of hunting and being in the outdoors. Rabbit Ranger was the creation of Christian aka "Christo", who realised one day that he just wasn't happy with his job and the way he was heading, like a mouse in a wheel, going round and round and round, he felt that work was taking up 40-50 hours a week, reducing the time he had with his family and overall, making him a sad and grumpy bloke. So what happened?Although he won't say he had an epiphany, he kind of did one day when he was out rabbit hunting, sat in camo, amongst the gorse and blackberry, it suddenly dawned on him that he was happy, that rabbits were delicious (see the recipes at the bottom of the page) and people were missing out on eating a resource that in turn was damaging the outdoors he loved. People used to eat them on a regular basis, what happened and how do we change that? With all the damage they do, eating them could only be a good thing!

Neil  Gemmell

EP 9 - Interview with Professor Neil J. Gemmell - H.O.D of Anatomy University of OtagoCould this be an alternative to 1080? Down load to find out!Biological control is widely used in the control and eradication of plant and animal species. Among the most common forms of biological control are a group of approaches that aim to control or eradicate population/species by reducing the fertility and reproductive capacity of a population/species. To date the most successful of these approaches has been the Sterile Male Technique. In this approach large quantities of sterile males are released into a population each generation. If released in sufficient numbers these males monopolise matings with females, but because they are sterile no progeny are produced resulting in a reduction in the population size. The main problem with current Sterile Male approaches is that sterile males need to be produced and released every year. The Trojan Female Technique uses mitochondrial DNA mutations that affect male, but not female fertility and fitness, circumventing this problem producing continuous, self-sustaining biological control.The TFT is a novel twist of the classic “Sterile Male” technique currently used in biocontrol. The essence of our idea is to use mitochondrial mutations that greatly affect male, but not female, fertility to produce continuous, self-sustaining biological control.Key advantages of  TFT are:No extensive use of genetic modification,No elaborate delivery system e.g. parasitic vectors and intermediate hosts,Species specific.Little (no?) danger of accidental release or cross-species transmission

Didymo Dave

Interview with Didymo Dave about how Hunters Canbecome more active in their environment. Words from Dave - "At a show a few years ago I watched young people looking at taxidermied Stoats etc and thought something is not quite right here? Eventually I figured out we have 5 senses and while having animals taxidermied on display is great and in some places the only appropriate option, it only allows people to engage with their vision. There's no smell and the Don't Touch sig...ns prohibit touch. So I started building a collection of freshly trapped, then frozen animals and taking them to where ever was a good place. Oh dear that created trouble, now I get regular invites to speak to schools, cubs, scouts etc with the added comment "Please can you bring your animals?". And if you could see a class of young ones chasing each other around the playground with dead Stoats, Ferrets, Rats etc you would appreciate that this works. So if anyone needs to borrow them, they are in my freezer, all ready to go"Find him on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/didymo.daveCheck him out on TV http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/good-sorts-dave-cade-video-5871767
