jonnytraff 8 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Im sure he will have to trap or shoot it as it is not allowed to hunt them with dogs. when did he mention dogs??? but yes trapping or sitting out with an air rifle would be your only option What idiot would use a dog to kill a mink? i would love to see the chunk that it takes out of the dogs nose. shooting or trapping is fine. u musn't of seen my dog mate..

matt_hooks 188 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 And whoever said no air rifle for mink is talking out of their arse! A wild mink weighs less than a big buck rabbit, and a modern hunting air rifle running at close to the legal limit is easily enough to take one. They are also on the list of approved quarry. As a non-native, invasive species, they should be killed when and where they are found. Of course taking them with dogs is illegal these days, so make sure you've got an eagle to hand to finish them off! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
