About this listen
My guest today is Corina Jordan, Chief Executive of the Game Animal Council and Fish & Game New Zealand. We talk about her lifelong love of the outdoors, from childhood adventures in Northland and Taranaki to her current role shaping New Zealand’s hunting and conservation policies.
Karina explains how modern game management can benefit both hunters and conservation, what “herds of special interest” mean for species like tar and sika, and how organizations like Fish & Game are restoring wetlands and advocating for healthy rivers.
We also cover the realities of hunting in New Zealand today – from deer management and the Canada goose debate to the growing number of women hunters and the synergies between hunting and tramping communities.
It’s a thoughtful conversation about how people, policy, and passion intersect in the New Zealand backcountry.
