DONT GET CAUGHT, AND YOU WONT NEED TO FIND OUT!!!

[robbo 802]

it all depends on who catches you and how they want to pursue it . some will use the law to its full extent others will take the rabbits off you and tell you to fcuk off.

[dommorris92 64]

Full extent of the law ? What is the law and what can happen

Well,slightly off topic but i got caught poaching with a lurcher and not a ferret and this was the result i got..fined over a grand,had motor confiscated,dog taken away and never returned,3 month on tag from 6pm to 6am,12 months probation,banned from keeping ANY type of hunting dog for 12 months,lamping equipment confiscated,mobile phone and some clothing confiscated,wasn't allowed to walk my pet dogs more than one mile from my home,couldn't stop to talk to anyone with a dog of any kind and banned out of Dumfries and Galloway ...oh and that was over a hare or two ..this is the truth so be warned if you ever get the urge to go perhaps somewhere you shouldn't

i had a letter from north yorks. police stating that if i was caught poaching by them that they would confiscate my vehicle and any other equipment i had, pending a successful prosecution.
