Quite a lot of unsubstantiated accusations there.

The LAC are really scraping the bottom of the barrel now.

They should look after the deer they have Baronsdown Exmoor. It's shameful.

you have to laugh at these sad people, such sad empty lives with nothing to do but ban this and ban that. Snares are an essential management tool and they are here to stay even those boneheads in the scottish parliament recognise this, so accept it and shut it !

Nothing crueler than nature itself

[mutdog951]

Snares are required to be checked every 24 hours and they tighten when the animal pulls otherwise they slacken off so all that talk of cutting into them are mis-information designed to generate support for agenda of an unmanaged countryside!

shooda been hur head in the snare not the dugs

[cowboyfromkettins]

they arent designed to catch pests. they have been used for tens of thousands of years as a hunting tool by humans. The Govt need to save the money banning snaring, its un policable as snares are so easy to make, Picture hanging wire, paracord, even fucking guitar strings can make snares. Look at Africa, Even trucks full of armed wildlife rangers cant stop the locals snaring stuff like Oryx or Kudu.
