WTF I'm in NZ right now and I can tell you for 100% sure that there are hundreds of bugs and insects.
BUT... you can still trip out and go wondering through the forest because nothing is deadly. You can run around and lie in the long grass naked knowing nothing will hurt you except maybe a mosquito.
What drugs are your friends taking???

Whoa weird bump... blast from the past.
I actually just spent six months in NZ and there are plenty of bugs and animals.
What's strange is that there are no native mammals in the whole country, except two rare bat species. The whole place is a haven for birds and insects, and not much else.
But yes there isn't really any animal out there that can hurt you. It makes hiking a lot more enjoyable. Living in Canada, I never realized it, but I always had the thought of bears on my mind whenever I was out hiking. Not that I ever ran into one, but the thought is always there. In New Zealand there are no poisonous creatures or big scary creatures (except in the ocean) so you feel remarkably safe out in the wild.
Yeah it might make a good playground for psychedelics for that reason, but you can still die of exposure or cold or other causes. Hikers die every year, most often from drowning when they try to ford rivers that have risen dramatically from sudden rainfall.
There are also drunken mobs roaming every town and city after nightfall. Much safer in the wild.

Ha, a 3 year old thread 
I can confirm insects, especially sandflies, and drunken mobs. No dangerous animals, maybe one rare poisonous snake.
