scothunter 12,609 Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Was talking to the police wildlife officer at scone fair today.He was showing me a drag snare and other stuff.Any way he was telling me that the drag snare was found in a womans garden with a very angry stripey attached.I was telling him about the break away snare woodga had made.Her hadnt heard of it but says seemed a good idea.He wasn't anti snaring at all he said they do a good job as long as they are set properly and checked regulary.Was actually pleasant to speak to a cop who knows what he was talking about.
