COMPO 54 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 criminal or civil offence? criminal i suppose if its the animal welfare argument about the humane dispatch of the caught animal!? itll be on the evening post "local lad had 180 hours community service for stressing some bunnys a little" whilst on page two in small print a little old lady got done right over & sadly died of her injuries later on in hospital! i cant fathom for the bloody life of me the way this country is going! were so bloody politically correct were actually quite incorrect! rant over. criminal offence, but the plod wont know this law and wont care either problem could be neighbouring farmers/landowners if you get seen, as under the agricultural pest act, the whole of the UK (with the exception of the city of london) is a rabbit control area and every landowner has a duty to operate control methods, and you are liable (civil court now) for damage done by rabbits living on your land to others crops. (railways get sued all the time by farmers) However as has been said if a few domestic rabbits (that just happen to be marked like the wild rabbits you ferreted earlier) escaped by accident from a pen :whistle: result Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reynardhunter 3 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 have any of you guys tried to reintroduce bunnys on land that hasnt held for years? how did you get on? any tips would be gratefull! I would not hesitate to release some as soon as i could, if they dont survive and breed then so what i,d try again, I wouldnt give the legality of it a second thought, you,ll always get some wally quoting this and that act! if you just do it and tell nobody you,ll get no grief, ask for permission and you may as well forget it.

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 It is illegal to reintroduce an type of vermin,be it Rabbits/Rats etc even if you own the land. Damn f*cking right it is! I don't believe I'm reading all this! Now, to quote Baldie ~ seemingly about the only Moderator still active on this entire forum ~ speaking on the 'Millet' Thread, only last night: " What part of It Is Illegal don't you understand?! " FFS, lads! What next? 'Why shouldn't I use my firearm to hold up a bank?' ? 'Why should I not have sexual relations with that nice little twelve year old down the road?' ?!? Let's bring on the badgers!!! What is UP with you guys??? Where's Chris Jones? Where's Any Moddies? Hasn't Millet seen this ....? Guys; Screw Your F*cking Loaves, will ye? THIS sh!t is Exactly WHY the Arsepca, LACS, POLICE and god alone knows who else sits here laughing their arses off as they Copy / Paste sh!t such as this. Then they chuck it in their magazines and show Joe Public Exactly how some of the moronic fringe of Field Sportsmen think! I.e. " F*ck the Ban! I'm Above The Law!!! " Coffee, anyone? We're NOT above Any f*cking Laws! Sitting there in ye bed sits, tapping out this 'Resistance' crap and calling yeself a heroic, outlaw name counts for sh!t when you're all alone, without computer or dinny, on line mates, to help ye defend the fact that YOU have just helped THEM put yet another nail in the coffin of LEGAL Hunting!

Guest baldie Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Complaints have been made about this post, and i thought about pulling it, however, i think ditch shitter,s post sums up the legal situation perfectly, so i think it will stay for the time being. For fucks sake, THINK BEFORE YOU POST. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dai dog 11 Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 i asked a genuine question. bed sits, heroic outlaw, keyboard warrior, fu**in kid. did i take that personally, or was it a general perseption of the people who replied? youre [bANNED TEXT], no one is above the law, wich is why i will not be befriending any rabbits in the near future. but be nicer ditch, surely you can get youre 20 pence worth with out being so insulting? mind you, i have got a cap that says " born to hunt, f*@k the ban" , but its only beqause i disagree with it, not beqause im a spotty 19 year old prick, that bothers with the young lad down the road, collects all manner of knives & guns to look hard, & think my self some crusader! treat people like you like to be treated youre self Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SeanTheHawker 0 Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 what about reintroducing mixy into the land by doing so? rabbits may be immune to ther mixy in their area, but once they get close to the few lands on the land you wanna put them on, they may catch it. will be a slightly different strain Quote Link to post Share on other sites
COMPO 54 Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 what about reintroducing mixy into the land by doing so? rabbits may be immune to ther mixy in their area, but once they get close to the few lands on the land you wanna put them on, they may catch it. will be a slightly different strain obviously you wouldn't actually be re-intoducing rabbits, as we discussed that's illegal, but yes you could introduce different strains of myxi and other ailmenst that as you say the local population dont have any immunity to however if there were no (or very few) local rabbits then it wouldn't really matter..... Much better to leave the land for a year, no hunting/ferreting/shooting and create good hedges and brush piles for cover, if the habitat is right the rabbits will come thats why everything thrives on keepered land Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 General perception, Rhys. Hang around long enough in these places and you too will see it till it sickens ye to the heart We get two main forms of it. One is the above. The other's the old, " He's done me wrong. I'm gonna sort him! " farce. That one Always brings a long thread of, " Yeah! Go round there n break 'is f*ckin legs, mate! ". All total b*llocks and hot air, of course. No one goes anywhere or does anything and, once the tribal chanting has died down, it all blows over. But, again, our enemies roll about clutching their sides to see such stuff. Don't get me wrong. I'm no saint. But then niether am I a complete hypocrite. I've had my flare ups, in the past. But my way was to invite the protagonists to visit my home address, for a chat about the situation ..... Why issue silly threats? If you're going to 'Do It', do it. But screaming that ye might all over a forum just smacks of the play ground. I've known hard core, Professional Deer Poachers, in the dim and long ago past. These guys had one thing in common: Complete normalcy. They'd express no open interest in anything and would keep their Dogs out of sight. Sneaking them into a closed van after dark. These boys had wives, children and mortgages. They were mature men. They didn't want to go to prison. Thus they simply kept it shut Anyway, enough of all that. How about Compo's excellent suggestion there, eh? As it's your own land, there's no law on earth against ye doing a spot of habitat management. Knock over the vermin which might compete with ye. Effectively, become ye own 'Gamekeeper'. Think about the old Warrens. The relevant laws, in essence of spirit, refer to Infestations. But no one's suggesting that Every rabbit on Every scrap of land Must be erradicated at any cost. That'd be plain silly. No, be a bit discreet. Keep it to yeself. Enjoy balancing their numbers, as and when they reach a reasonable level No one could knock ye for that. And I'm sure, what ever ye efforts and the results of them, All the local widlife will feel the benefits of your looking to nurture nature a bit there ~ well; All except the mustalids, eh?

dai dog 11 Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 yes you are perfectly right ditch, you see it more & more! smashed up terriers on couples at every game fair! the old owner + dog cliche', my dog is a machine therefore i am! and yes, i enjoy seeing all manner of animals on the land, wich is why its a matter of conservation as well as the odd run! the only reason they left as far as i know is that they stopped growing veg!? yet the farm up the road is teeming! funny eh? & i know that there were lots at one time!

COMPO 54 Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 may i suggest, planting some veg then, not to eat, more habitat management Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dai dog 11 Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 it would be the obvious thing to do , theres lots of sheep that get moved around, itll be a nightmare trying to keep the veg alive! the funny thing is , its only a small singletrack road that devides the 2 farms yet they dont travel!
