Tahr hunting
Tahr hunting refers to the pursuit of tahr, large mountain goats native to the Himalayas, particularly found in regions like New Zealand and parts of Asia. Hunters are typically attracted to the challenge of tracking these agile animals in rugged terrains. The hunt is often regulated to maintain sustainable populations, as tahr can impact local ecosystems due to their grazing habits. Tahr hunting combines outdoor skill, wildlife management, and conservation efforts, as licensed hunters often contribute to local economies and conservation initiatives through permits and fees, ensuring a balance between sport and ecological responsibility.
