    Just read the documents, the DOC National panel are certainly very pro WARO.

    Interesting that an AATH operator submitted against the taking of trophy stags (self interest!)

    I’m a little bemused that the processing factory said that the majority of stags taken have no trophy potential, considering that the antlers/velvet are removed before going into the chiller truck & being taken to the factory how can they make this statement/assessment? Load of BS & DOC lapped it up.
    More land being opened up and the WARO guys whining about areas being 1080 and the 2km buffer zone hurting there viability!

    Apparently the non Stat days over Xmas/New Year period are there busiest times to get deer, etc So the exclusion period shouldn’t be extended…..and they don’t want a 4 week roar exclusion either..

    Shooting hinds in Jan/Feb & leaving fawns to starve to death is legal under the WAC act, I wonder what the European consumers would say about this if the knew?

    Basically the Rec hunter gets zip despite the High court case saying a review is needed, and WARO get there wish list.
    tikka, chainsaw, matagouri and 3 others like this.
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!

    What part of the WAC act stops WARO from shooting in milk hinds. Wouldn't that mean it would be pretty marginal for the factories to accept them.

    never underestimate the hypocrisy of govt. rules for thee but not for me. like how 1080 which is a very cruel death is legal for them.
