Rabbits ARE legal but you DO need permission from the landowner. You say the quarry isnt owned by anyone but im pretty sure it IS owned by someone, maybe the local council, maybe "the people" as all land is owned by SOMEONE. Hunting without permission is poaching, simples. The only thing you can argue as far as i can see is that he was just walking the dogs and they happened to either catch or better still just find the rabbits already dead. If it was just one rabbit i would if said they disturbed a fox just after a catch but that aint gonna happen 4 - 5 times in one walk! Lol! Shame to leave um being that were in the middle of a credit crunch so he took um home. Now...............if the dogs happened to of caught the rabbits they must of been off their leads and that in the eyes of the law means they were out of control so best say they just found them. I wish you all the best with it mate. Let us know how it goes.

i got taken to court 5 times by tilcon quarries the police charged me with taking ground game (conies) without the land owners permission the fine goes up every time they summons you 25yrs ago it started at £20 plus cost it was all part of the game we used to catch hundreds of rabbits sell them for a pound (dressed) i made more money then than i do now,if they think you are breaking a 100yr law these days they take your vehicle of you how times have changed

 

 

 

Don't know what year it was, but I was fined £5 + 16sh and 6pence court ex's for catching rabbits on the railway [the older guys will know about shillings @ pence]

Cheers.

NO REPLY TO EVERTHING,THERE JOB IS TO PROVE THAT YOU WAS POACHING, AND IF YOU WERNT CATCHED ON THE LAND THEY HAVENT GOT A CHANCE OF CONVICTION UNLESS YOU ADMIT IT
