I don't agree with killing BOP for the sake of a few poxy pheasants that some lard arsed shotters going to maim anyway. Any keeper caught killing them should be jailed IMO.

you will do when the buzzards kill a load of this seasons leverets and they do kill them what is to be done when a protected species is the reason for the decline in a another species already in trouble

Then they need to be controlled. I wouldn't say the pheasant is in decline though lol.

 

game shooting is in the same category as farming as such deserves the same protection, its not about a couple of pheasant its about protecting a revenue that shapes the countryside without it there would be far less countryside

Should the Scottish sea eagle population be controlled?

BEING part of government is about taking the right decision, not the popular one.

The time has now come for the Scottish Government to admit that sea eagle re-introduction has gone wrong - and do something about it.

 

Farmers and crofters have had enough and are now calling for official action. The government must now take heed. These alien birds are proving a real threat to the iconic golden eagle, as well as lambs and hoggs.

Surely we don't have to wait until a small child is attacked before the government intervenes. Privately, some Scottish Natural Heritage personnel will admit the total unsuitability for the area of these birds.

This organisation's credibility rating in the countryside would soar if it was to now admit that it got it wrong - and advise government accordingly.

So a man killing a bop should go to jail trying to protect his livelihood. I suppose a man running a hare should face the same then...surely that's worse as it's just for fun??

Maybe the way the man runs his business should be looked into. It's upto him to make sure his place is vermin protected with fencing etc. anyone who lets his "livelihood" roam free in the wild needs to expect the wildlife to see his "livelihood" as free game. As for coursing hares, the penalties are sever mate.

I'll ignore the first bit.

Penalties are every bit if not more severe for shooting a hook beak. You will continue to break the law in the name of sport and some will break the law to provide a living for there family...?

That's different though. If they are a threat to golden eagles they need controlled. As for the pheasant, the dumbest bird in existence, even the dodo wonders how its still going strong, they shouldn't be killed cos these stupid birds have no natural fear of anything. Any bird who thinks its safe to stand in the middle of the road next to 3 squashed relatives deserves everything it gets.

no lab, he should not go to jail, but his boss who pay his wages, + for a house,motor should have in (enough birds )or poults in the 1st place, to cover losses from all kinds of predators 4 legs+ feather . fact . in a nutshell there should have more than enough bird there, they know the law on there side regards 4 legged vermin to control, so both the keeper+boss have+are not doing there jobs proper when they loose birds to any kind of predator mammal or bird , if they not got enough birds there to cover losses
