A man is dead after he was shot during a hunt for turkey turkey with two relatives on private farmland.

The incident occurred in remote farmland off Ridge Road, about 9km south of Paengaroa in the Bay of Plenty, at about 6pm yesterday.

The 59-year-old Tauranga man was found down a gully and the Herald understands he was shot in the head.

I think that this news article just summs up how dangerous hunting for wild turkeys... in the wild is. i mean... he was so frustrated he turned the gun on himself.
