Sauer,

 

just one to be aware of, if you haven't seen it already...

http://www.thecourier.co.uk/News/Angus/article/11234/arbroath-man-one-of-first-to-be-fined-under-snares-legislation.html

 

I know it is regarding fox snares, but these ****s are a law unto themselves.

Assuming this was on private land?

cheers mark

 

no i hadnt seen this and its right on my doorstep!!!!!!

 

if they werent "illegal" i guess they must have had deerstops on the snares but "badly set" i can only think from what ive read of the legislation they mean they were on a fence or some other structure where the animal could have hung itself or the like or near wter course and possibly drowned.

 

i just got the pack thru from the SGA few days ago

 

i guess we are all waiting to see what comes out of the government debate in a couple o days time
