Feral goats are running wild in the suburbs of Queenstown. They are running rampant all over Ben Lomond to the point that Queenstown has signs of goats on the road between Queenstown and Arrowtown, Mr Hope said. Mr Hope said when he moved to Queenstown four years ago there were one or two goats in the hills. As a hunter, he now came across about 150 goats in the morning in the hills behind Queenstown. "No word of a lie I have seen more goats in Queenstown than I have seen rabbits in Canterbury."
