Abstract
Twenty-one vhf-collared tahr were monitored before and after two aerial applications of 1080 poison (sodium fluoroacetate) during winter 2019 in the Perth catchment, South Westland. All tahr survived both treatments. The minimum survival rate for tahr exposed to aerially-applied 1080 in this environment is 79%.
