IN my opinion, if you was rabbiting common ground, you would not be bothered by anyone unless you were shooting.

 

I used to take my airgun out on lots of common ground, I never had a problem. Since the Dunblane murders, having a gun of any sorts in public, just leads to bother. I mean FFS, my mate had armed responce to him because his shooting partner was spotted at the side of the road, zeroing in his sights. Oh yeah, the spotter was an off duty plod :realmad: My arse twitches at the very thought of going shooting on land I don't have permish on, but before Dunblane, I poached the Queen's land weekly.

[Guest The Shaman]

Nah, unless you load you ferrets in a cannon :11:

 

Some of the guys on this site will have been in a few sticky situations and can offer you some sage advice.

i don`t do any shooting just running my dog and the ferrets, i thought i was going to get

a pull by the plod the other night when i was out, basiclly i was just going to tell them

the truth i was out catching rabbits to feed my ferrets, its just nice to know where you stand

with these new laws, its the only thing i could think of at the time.

cheers

how can they charge me for hunting wild game when rabbits are classed as vermin?, i think the most they

can do is charge me with trespassing or something along those lines. :whistle:

GAME (SCOTLAND) ACT 1832

Section 1 of this Act established the offence of trespassing on land in search of 'game' (hares, pheasants, partridges, grouse, heath or moor game, black game, and bustards and also rabbits, woodcocks, snipes and wild ducks). Anyone failing to quit land on the request of the owner or his servant can be arrested by that person, but must then be brought before a Sheriff

[Rabbithunter 456]

just try not to get caught :11:

 

i cant see how they can give you a driving ban, (i know that they can & will) but FFS armed robbers dont get a driving ban......

 

i cant weigh this country up

[dickyboy 1]

if your taking any animal they can do you for poaching!

[Kane 2]

There are a number of laws they can and will do you for.

If your caught your dogs and ferrets can be confiscated and at some stage in the future destroyed.

Dont get caught is the only way to get away with it.

You are playing big boys games and I am afraid you have to play by the big boys rules.

It does seem unjust for your dog to be put to sleep just for the sake of a few rabbits but that is the life style you have chosen.

You personaly will face large fines and maybe imprisonment but for your animals its a death sentence.

[shepp 2,285]

I far as i know trespass is not a criminal offence, so in theory you can walk into anybodys house, sit and watch tv and that is not breaking any criminal laws.

So if you caught by the police on land without permission then as long as your not carrying rabbits or any other game then you can not be arrested.

Unless of course you want to stand there and tell the police what your doing!

[wingnut 27]

Like most people have said easiest way is to keep quiet and don't say anything but also don't get caught !
