摘要

The late Professor Kenneth Cumberland described the high country as a sixty-four kilometre long strip of mountainous country east of the great divide of the Southern Alps, stretching from the Cook Strait in the north to Te Anau, in Fiordland (McIntyre, 2008, 8). He named the region, on his hand drawn map of New Zealand Soil Erosion Regions as, 'South Island Tussock High Country' (Cumberland, 1943, 120). In short, it is a tract of land sandwiched between the Alpine ranges and the downlands and coastal plains of the east coast. Also known as 'the tussock grasslands', 'rangelands' or 'run country' it has been closely linked with an extensive system of Crown Pastoral Leases that restrict the use of the area to pastoral activity, effectively the extensive grazing of merino sheep, and no significant other landuse (Kearsley & Croy, 2000, 114).
