Learn more about Game Changer NZ

To get set up as a Game Changer NZ hunter, you need to do two things: 

  1. First, enrol on this course. To enrol you'll need a free Better Hunting account - see the self-enrolment instructions below.
  2. Once you're enrolled, complete the knowledge check. There are ten questions and it'll take about three minutes.

That's it! We’ll confirm you as a Game Changer NZ hunter and be in touch to let you know when you're needed.

Once you're on a hunt to donate, you'll log your return through here. This checks the animal was not recovered from a poison zone, records key details, and gives you a donation ID. That ID goes with the animal to the butcher, so meat can be tracked through processing and on to the food bank.

If you have any problems, please check the FAQ here.
