Oliver Organ 4 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Lads I've been to Australia and caught boar with lurcher crosses and they do a fantastic job how do we come off in the uk with boar as they are not a native species and they certainly wouldn't have been considered in the ban in 05 as they were few and far between but they have exploded out of control know.If there's a loop hole regarding them Iam ordering some chest plates as we have got loads round by me. I only want true facts not that u wouldn't run boar your self and all the crap that goes with it just want a straight answer cheers lads Quote Link to post
kranky 507 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 You can't run them. There were loads about in 2005. The ban doesn't specify what you can't run only what you can. The boar here aren't the same as the ones you've run in Australia. Have you seen the ones local to you? 2 very different animals. They have feral hogs, we have wild boar. 1 Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 As Kranky says the law doesn't state a list of things you can't run. They just banned hunting with dogs full stop. Then they list the exceptions. Rabbits on permission land. Rats on permission land. Etc. Quote Link to post

That's right technically there is nothing about hunting squirrels is there? Quote Link to post

Boris??? 12 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Hunting MAMMALS with dogs is illegal unless described in the exceptions. Unless you put big ears and a fluffy tail on your boar and get the lurcher to bring it to hand whilst still alive, I can't see any loopholes Quote Link to post
trenchfoot 4,243 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 you could shoot the boar with your catty, then let the dog track it as its mortally wounded. Just ask Baw Quote Link to post

Oliver Organ 4 Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Kranky the pigs in oz there's 70% of them are wild boar but because of the Temperatures over there they have evolved to have smooth hair rather then are fully coated European boar they were realised there from Europe they do have a lot over there which have crossed with domestic pigs but its only made them bigger in size there's pigs over there nearly twice what are sus scrofa weigh any ways I won't be doing it hear in the uk as I want to stay the right side of the law.

You can't hunt squirrels with dogs mate legally. They are a mammal. And they are not listed as exempt. Quote Link to post
Con6212 155 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 I know lads that have done it legal or not, and its a right mess. Injured or dead dogs is the main outcome. And they have a tendency to come from no where to help each other out. 1 Quote Link to post
