Not if it's not sport. Different strokes for different folks. If you ARE just doing it from sport and it IS reducing the numbers . . .. then your foolish. Quote Link to post
JPTfellterrier 65 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 because some of us don't just hunt for sport and are asked by the land owners to get rid of the population Quote Link to post

But then again all land is different. At the end of the day, if folk are just walking the land, poaching, they don't care, and if folk are hunting their permission, you shouldn't care. So either way. . . . 1 Quote Link to post

ban is just a word 43 Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 im on about people i know who go out doing the same thing as me, for sport and for the dogs... not too control the population, i have a farm where im asked too get rid of the lot of rabbit there nd i am doing so but poachers like myself do it every night of the year i really cant see the point, its not asif weve got that many rabbits here anyhow so when it comes too breeding if anything we should help the rabbits breed by keeping down other pests Quote Link to post

chartpolski 20,779 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 There is another way of looking at it... Rabbits are £4.99 at my local game dealer, and go for £2.50 each in the pubs and clubs. So, some may be doing it for more than sport or because the farmer wants them to !! I wouldn't blame any one for lamping if it was helping pay their bills and keep food on their table ! Cheers. Quote Link to post
