Experience and Track Record

S3210001With more than 70,000 hours of ungulate control experience throughout New Zealand and more recently in Australia. BCL has extensive experience and skill base.

BCL has extremely experienced field operators, that are fully resourced with the latest equipment. Each hunter has specifically trained hunting dog teams. The team has the experience and skills to deliver the control effort to achieve maximum results.

With 5 of the current team members with 5,000- 30,000 hours experience in ungulate control, BCL personnel are unmatched in “time spent on the job”. When required new trainee hunters are also brought into the team and are trained by this core group. After a trial period and learning the necessary attributes and competencies a new hunter joins the team.
