I had to look up the meaning of "Fudd" yesterday because the term was unfamiliar to me. Now I have come across another new term which is equally unfamiliar to me; "non target species". Surely there is no such thing? I dont understand?? They just look like deer to me.

Haha. Normally, they would be target species but I was just carrying my .22lr with subs so wasn't keen. They will keep.
