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.dave Check him out on TV http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/good-sorts-dave-cade-video-5871767
