Himalayan Tahr

The Himalayan tahr (Hemitragus jemlahicus) is one of New Zealand’s most distinctive introduced game species, brought to the country in the early 1900s as part of efforts to establish exotic animals for hunting and sport.

Native to the rugged mountain ranges of the Himalayas, these hardy and sure-footed animals quickly adapted to New Zealand’s alpine environments, particularly in the Southern Alps. With their impressive curved horns and thick, flowing coats, Himalayan tahr have become a prized species among hunters, offering both a challenging pursuit and an opportunity to experience the breath-taking beauty of New Zealand’s high country.
