SNAP SHOT 194 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Sounder it will be fairy difficult to get a section 42 at this time of year, plus you have to have a lot of evidence built up that the deer are causing major damage to livestock or crops, So i'd say pretty damn hard......your talking two weeks for a ranger to come and survey the damage, then a week to issue the section. but you have to have a valid reason for dispatch, out of season.......

spudlington 3 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Sounder, Haven't been able to get online for a while so only saw your post now. If there is damage being done you should be able to get a section 42 now without too much hassle. One of the farms I stalk on has had a few stags hitting it over month of Feb. Farmer put in for section42 and it was issued within 5 working days. Issued on 27th Feb and valid till end of April. Got a big stag on the ground a few days after it was issued so farmer pretty happy. Think you can download blank section 42's off the wildlife service site. Spud Quote Link to post
