Elk Hunting in New Zealand

Experience the thrill of hunting one of the world’s most majestic big game species—the Elk, commonly known as Wapiti. These impressive animals attract hunters from across the globe, offering the chance to harvest a trophy that rivals the finest specimens found in North America.

From the Rockies to the South Pacific
The elk population in New Zealand descends from the powerful Rocky Mountain elk bloodline, introduced in 1909 as a gift from President Theodore Roosevelt. Over the years, the species has thrived in New Zealand’s diverse landscapes, producing some of the largest and most impressive bulls in the world.

The Great Orator of the Wilderness
During the rut, the unmistakable "bugling" of a dominant bull echoes across the valleys—an unforgettable sound that rivals even the greatest orators. This unique vocalization adds an extra dimension to the excitement of tracking and hunting these powerful animals.
