The 33-year-old has been charged with obstructing a Medical Officer of Health and unlawfully hunting, after he drove approximately 230km on a four day hunt from Monday to Thursday last week.
Canterbury Rural Area Commander Inspector Peter Cooper says if you're thinking of going hunting during Alert Level 3, be sure to follow the rules.
He says hunt on private land within your region, but not on public conservation land.
The man will appear in court in June.
