BIGLURKS 874 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Under the scottish protection of wild animal act, they have to prove that you were intentionally/deliberately hunting hares and not rabbits, just stick to " you only hunt rabbits as pest control " they cant prove otherwise. The Procurator fiscal has lost a couple of cases on this at Dumfries, they may not bring charges now if in doubt.When they lifted us we had 205 rabbits so that should tell them what we were doing ......you sure you were in Scotland be f****d if I could find 200 rabbits in one night maybe with a gun and pickup and covering 100 miles a night Quote Link to post

wild rover 548 Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Two or three years ago a couple of lads near Lockerbie were caught with a hare and a few rabbits , that the dogs accidently caught on the lamp as they were lamping rabbits with permission, which was a pest control service they and their dads did for years, they had the van and dogs confiscated for 6 months, they won their case on they werent deliberately hunting hares and there was no evidence that it was intentional, or so the story goes, if they had lost the bill to house the 3 lurchers was thousands (SRSPCA) inflated prices, and lost the van, to loose this case cost the procurator fiscal and police a fortune. 2 Quote Link to post

skycat 6,173 Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Surely if you are a professional pest controller, you can claim loss of earnings: the rabbits: if they are incinerated. 6 Quote Link to post
