A 1.5 metre wooden stag has bee erected in early 2019 on the main road into Apiti. Crafted by Errol McKay the wooden stag represents the generations of wild game hunters the town has welcombed into its settlement in 1886. Under the stag was lies an old Maire tree, which was found on the bank of the Oroua River. Apiti has been known as the gateway to the Ruahine Ranges. Deer culling began in the area in the early 1900's to stop over-grazing in surrounding forests. Hunters crafted tracks and huts throughout the ranges in the winter before hunting deer in the Autumn.
