Matt 160 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Most humane, or most efficient? As Stubby says, it depends on the situation as well. I would also differentiate between hunting with hounds, and hunting with dogs (IMO there is a huge difference between 17 and a half couple of foxhounds killing a fox, and a single lurcher). You also need to differentiate the methods a bit more. Snaring, Cage Trapping, Shooting with a centrefire rifle, shooting with a shotgun etc... Oh, and next time you are in college, look up the spelling of the word 'before'........... lol Quote Link to post

bale21will 0 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 ok can i just add that the assignment is comparing three types of fox control live trapping, shooting with rifle and hunting with hounds and it isn't urban it is farm land or organised shoot thanks. Quote Link to post
TOPPER 1,809 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 hunting with dogs isnt banned its just got a few restictions on it ie only 2 dogs and flussing to guns and terrierwork is still legal Quote Link to post
Matt 160 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 cheers mate but i came on here about fox control not spelling mistakes Great attitude! If you come on here and post rubbish, you should expect some critisism. I've offered advice, and suggested more clarification, but you don't seem interested. Your loss............ Quote Link to post

john b 38 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Here's an idea Bale Why not work on your project and then post it here for comment ? I think it would be interesting to read your analysis of the different methods; the pros and cons, the options etc. With a bit of luck everyone will play nicely and help you refine your points.
