Wild Boar


Recommended Posts

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

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.

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.

That's right technically there is nothing about hunting squirrels is there?

 

thought it was illegal? :hmm:

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. Thanks everyone for clearing this up for me

You can't hunt squirrels with dogs mate legally. They are a mammal. And they are not listed as exempt.

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.

Bet is a sows young and she's come to help

Also big difference if its boar with tusks

No mate it was a boar with tusks ripped his dog open it did
