Rodeos are in trouble, tail docking cows and dogs banned, farrowing crates and layer cages phasing out all stuff that was quite acceptable a few years ago. Overseas who would have thought the Brits would ban Fox Hunting or that in parts of Aus pig holding dogs would be banned. More people in future NZ means a greater disconnect between the majority city and the minority rural and hunter/gatherer types. How long will it be as an example, until using a live Kahawai with a hook through it's back swimming under a balloon is banned ?. Our only saviour from scrutiny is that our game animals get lumped into the 'pest' introduced mammal category. Perhaps we should think about what the non hunters will be expecting and scrutinising in the future and what hunters need to do now in anticipation ??
