A century ago, a little-known, exotic animal, the Himalayan tahr was introduced to New Zealand for big-game sporting purposes. From a few releases at Aoraki Mt Cook, tahr are now permanent inhabitants of the sub-alpine zones in the central Southern Alps. This book documents their ecology, lifestyle and unique behaviour, both in New Zealand and in their homelands.
