@Khalid Gibson thanks

Hahaa I have no friends and at least my Parrots talk to me 🤣🤣🤣

On a lonely day in the mountains u take what u can for company xD

😂😂😂 when ur lonely 😂

Saw a video yesterday where a guy took 4 goats with him. That would be pretty awkward in the situation.

@@j.e.wilds-hunting I'll go hunting with you cmon now 😂 I just got a survival rifle from my landlord it's a start haha

Haha yeah pesky things aye! They are always a laugh! Thanks man and I hope your doing well!

Exactly what was goin on through my head haha!

@@j.e.wilds-hunting First of your vids I've seen. What birds are they? Native or introduced?

Looks like this is the one or family at least? New Zealand’s alpine parrot, the kea, is well known for its comical and destructive antics, tearing wiper blades off cars and disembowelling backpacks.

@@Kilkee4sheezy yeah your onto it, they are Kea and they also love destroying tents!🤣

agree

Yeah agree

same here

siick cant

Yessir

Looks like two Kea's havin fun by disturbin ihm😂. These Birds (Parrots) are high intelligent. This wisseld "Shut up" was great 😁😂

@@jansteini9612 reminds me of deer hunting and the damn squirrels feel like it’s a great time to play tag in the woods.

@@jameskirmess8945 😂. Sorry i have no glue what you mean with "play tag in the woods" ( i'm german, and i have no idea how to translate "tag in the woods" ) but it sounds funny to me

"Tag" is a game children play where they chase each other in order to touch or "tag". Squirrels chase each other and make a lot of noise when they do, often to the detriment of a hunt.

Thank you Art I am glad you enjoyed the video. It sure is beautiful country isnt it. I'm glad to take you on the adventure even if it is from the comfort of your home!

Your friends will also be saying about you the same 😆

Haha! Those birds are crazy!

What birds are they

@@benbob6198 those are Kea parrots

Good old Kea in Aotearoa buddy. They are bloody mischievous to a fault and brave beyond reason.

Hahaha that's awesome! I bet he would have pounced if he was there

We were there on holls a couple of years back. They're overrun with feral deer, and can't get enough people hunting them. They were giving game licenses free, at that time!

@@steamboatwillie8517 its always free. only trout have a loicense you need to pay for

@@maximilianpierce5115 wow! Everything here (UK)will cost you, plus, you need a license for everything, including a permit for shooting vermin. Strangely, ( fishing wise) you're more likely to be done for no rod license than poaching!

Perfectly said!

Awesome man thanks and the Fishing season is getting close!

Real nice experience man!

AGREED!

Real curious animals arent they

What did you think of that aggressive guy that was stamping and snorting, trying to find him? It looked like he couldn't see Joe at all but knew something was there from the bird freak-out and could most likely smell him too! I love watching his posts too! Joe is an intuitive camera man and makes the simplest, everyday crap look like something glorious and fun! I think my favorite part was the frontal shot at the very end, it looked awesome. Hope you guys have better luck on your next adventure, I'm in Kansas City and want so badly to come visit New Zealand, its unbelievably beautiful there, I know I'll instantly fall in love with the place!

@@jeffffro7674 It was quite a sight as I have not seen a chamios that looked as lost and confused as he was. The country that I went hunting in was absolutely awesome even though joe was a lot higher than I was so when he got snow I got a bit on rain. But the scenery was non the less spectacular. And also invested in a much better range finder than the one we took on the trip so hopefully we'll be a bit more successful next time. One day you'll make it to New Zealand and I'm sure you'll love it. And if you want to go for a hunt check out wildside hunting safaris. After covid dies down hopefully.

Cheers Ben yeah man I do remember you! Good to meet you! Jeffro is going to get here one day, he is keen enough

Thank you Thorsten, glad you liked the video. One day I would like to see a Reindeer over there

Hi Thorsten. Cane we from Denmark hunt i Norway? Been hunting in Greenland every year for many years. Thanks Flemming Juhl

@@j.e.wilds-hunting I love how you say "see" and mean "kill". Please come to see them and forgo the killing part!

@@shuuuuushhshs2698 you have some right ideas, but I think you fail to see that your point number 2 related to trophy hunting would pretty much put this video in the wrong (which it absolutely is). The only reason I can think of that would allow some form of hunting is overpopulation, which might happen if we're as irresponsible to take away all natural predators, then the population of their preys will boom. We should also recognize that this is a patch to a problem that we ourselves have created by getting rid of the predators, and we should help repopulate and get out of the picture and let wildlife be. We definitely can enjoy doing 95% of what this dude does in his video, which is going in breathtaking places and getting so close to amazing wildlife, but absolutely there is no reason at all to randomly kill some of it just for pleasure. That is just despicable and a sign of immaturity. It's important to recognize that in this video he's killing a perfectly fine exemplar of young buck pretty much for his own entertainment and for youtube views.

@@j.e.wilds-hunting won't it be amazing if all the hunters gather in one such place and hunt one another? A better test of skill and courage as compared to killing a defenseless animal!

Best bang for buck rifles on the planet aye

I’ve got the same rifle. Best gun for back country hunting I’ve ever carried

Yep, I've got the T3X stainless in .308, all the Sako quality for half the cost.

Just another slice of paradise in Aotearoa New Zealand. And it's the bottom of the world 🤣

Beautiful alright aye!

@@j.e.wilds-hunting it certainly is. As an Aussie I've been over 6 times for that reason. Hey if you don't mind me asking. Your gopro audio is excellent. What setup are you running. I need to get mine running a bit better and I've been looking at external mic options on my Hero 8 Black.

@@EDGEoftheOUTBACK I just be very careful not to film in certain wind, if I am able to tuck away from the wind I try to do so

Hey Brent sounds good! The Hunting season is just come to an end for the Mountain hunts and I am kicking the new season off in March next year. I think that's a good idea, I've had a few requests on the planning and preparation side of the trips so maybe I can do a few episodes on that side of the hunt

@@j.e.wilds-hunting 1 eternity later

Thanks man glad to hear! Cheers Simon

Thanks man! Awesome country alright

But that death was useless. Not for hunger, but just for his own joy. That isn't right thing for civilized man to do.

@@Wsheep-sm4fq how doyou know he didn´t eat the animal?

​@Wsheep-sm4fq are u stup1d? You did see him gut the animal and state that he is carrying the meat yeah?

Thanks Tony glad you enjoyed it bro

Thankyou Muzza! Glad to hear mate thanks for the support

@@j.e.wilds-hunting c

Thanks Josiah glad your enjoying it mate good to hear!

@@j.e.wilds-hunting ill check it out now, awesome to see someone basically living the dream👌 can't imagine the strength of the trout. Random question if you know, why doesn't anyone fish with it being a fly rod in New Zealand? Keep up the great work m8

@@Itchin4fishinginsta plenty of people are fishing with fly rods over here mate, it's a good way to get some action!

Thanks Jeffro! Yeah really awesome encounters aye mate! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your comment as always

Thanks man glad you enjoyed it! Cheers for the comment

Or just stupid 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks Mark and glad you enjoy the video, have a safe and Merry Christmas - Joe

@@j.e.wilds-hunting Merry Christmas to you as well.

That's a good idea, that one will keep your laces centered to

He’s alone so he would of brought out as much as he could

Thanks for your fantastic feedback Shawn. Glad you found the channel and hope to see your name pop up in the future. Kind regards, Joe 👌

I bet that was exciting man awesome to hear. I hope you enjoyed the moment

Im game when you’re ready

Thanks Jo! Good to hear you enjoyed it. I am glad to see people like yourself enjoying the videos! Thanks for the support and I appreciate the comment!

@@j.e.wilds-hunting ☺❤🤙

Will do, thank you

Haha yeah it was a tense moment wasnt it haha cheers bro!

they finally added the New Zealand map!!

They are really cool aye! I love those pesky little guys haha

Thankyou! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the support!

we all know that you're already a vegetarian ama keep eat my meat proudly

Hunting isn't for everyone, but respect needs to go all the way around. If you choose not to eat meat I respect that, it is your choice and no one has the right to tell you what to do. The same goes for those that hunt or raise their own meat, being respectful of the animals life and being thankful that its sacrifice helps sustain your own life. An animals life is to be respected, true hunters are very solemn about the sacrifice of the animal but excited about the success and being able to provide food for their family. It is a very particular feeling, one you can only experience by being there. The biggest/most important thing I would say is that an animal that is harvested from nature has lived a full life as nature intended. It was free, it knew predators, bitterly cold days and the bounty of summer. Animals in their habitat always have an advantage.

No worries and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Just a little note from New Zealand there are feral goats,pigs,Austrian chamois,Himalayan tahr and deer all over the place you can shoot as many as you want, those mountains are free to shoot in ,done it many times you can camp up there for weeks cheers

If the area has been regularly aerial poisoned since the 1990s, would that make the information that formed the basis of the poison criticism suspect? And consequently much of the other emotive "information" from the same sources relating to pest control criticism.

All I know is the Keas were in big numbers. Some of the largest groups I've seen

Thanks for the comment Louis glad you enjoyed it

Cheers John 🤙🏻

Thanks for the comment, I am really glad you enjoyed the hard work gone it to creating these films. The rifle I'm using is a Tikka T3 7mm08, it's actually a friends rifle and it is a good one. The scope is really good also. Thanks for your support I am glad to have you on the team! Welcome my friend!

JE Wilds 🤙 I thought it was a Tikka T3,, but I wasn’t exactly sure on the Caliber. That’s why I asked. The Tikka 7mm cartridge, along with the Zeiss (Conquest) makes for a great hunting rifle. Please continue to makes these videos! Your content is absolutely awesome and addictive to watch! I really enjoy watching sporting, fishing & hunting videos, if they are shot and edited nicely, and when the scenery is stunning, it’s an added bonus. Your videos are spot on. Continued success and stay safe, especially when the weather starts getting bad! Take care and enjoy the adventure!!!

@@myinfinitestate1586 I'm glad you are finding some content your enjoying. I know RU-vid is filled with so many to choose from. I'm glad you have found my channel! Keep the comments coming mate, glad to read them

JE Wilds 🤙 Absolutely mate. Hopefully, in the future you can come to the States. If so, I can definitely have my buddy put us on some incredible moose or other big game animals. He guides in Alaska. There are several large game that he specifically guides for. The different big game species, depends upon where you obviously go. The Alaskan-Variety of moose are wicked huge. The bulls are 1,500-1,800 lbs. with an antler spread of 60-70 inches. The bulls are absolute behemoths. We can get tags for Moose, Dall Sheep, Bison, Caribou, Elk, Deer, and even Mountain Goat and Muskox. You would have to push farther North, but the hunting is absolutely incredible. If you ever plan of coming to the States, let me know if you would be interested? I’m definitely stoked to see your next video. Be safe and enjoy the hunt!

@@myinfinitestate1586 sounds amazing! Let's hope I can get there one day soon. I may send you a message

One day you will have to try it!

@@j.e.wilds-hunting Long way to NZ :D Hopefully this COVID-show ends soon

@@Strutsi let's hope so!

The Finnish rifle likes it

because he is killing innocent animals

@@TheEmolin its called nature there is no such thing as an innocent animal

@@maaginen1007 oh a guy shooting an animal for fun and it is called nature? sounds pretty natural. if you’re not eating your hunt then it is a murder. that “population control” thing is a bullshit which these guys came up with for legitimate their crime. nature would balance itself, it doesn’t need mankind to help.

@@TheEmolin So you come to a hunting video to preach to people through the comment section?

@@tomcromie6074 my intent is not preaching to people but my comment might make one more person to think about this, and my friend there is no harm in thinking!

Thanks man good to hear! I am running a few cameras but in this video I'm using my GoPro and GH5

Yeah they are really curious birds and the animals around them do listen. Haha you just have to put up with them and work together. Yeah the gear is good gear it is from Stoney Creek

I was wondering what gear you were using as well. You're camo and pack. I'd love some information on them. Congratulations on an epic hunt, one for the ages. It's so beautiful there!

@@gamehunter07 thanks man the camo is Alpine Tuatara from Stoney Creek and it's also a Stoney Creek pack, the model is 60+10 Buller pack from Stoney Creek

Thanks Alec really happy to hear that! Yeah in this video it is just my GoPro and GH5

Such a cool encounter!

Pack it...

You skin it on the spot and take only what you need. Other wild animals take care of the rest.

@@e0nema0tak1v lol really? I dont think he did that.

@@ridewithvalentine96 14:48 he’s doing it
