    poachers caught

    A good result for farmer and cops. Hopefully the judge does something beyond a wet bus ticket when it goes to court.

    Nice work. As it was grazing on the farmer's property he, therefore, is the owner.

    wrong, the wild animals are owned by the crown. The land owner can give permission to shoot it and then who ever lawfully shoots it owns it.

    However being in Taupo and poaching is stupid and lazy. Living so close to public land means they have more opportunties than most.

    Fucking pricks. Peel their fucking skin off with a rusty potato peeler.
    Pengy and silentscope like this.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Probably already confiscated and bent...
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...

    Due to the exorbitant cost of reloading components, warning shots will not be given.

    But as he didn't give the required permission I'm pretty sure that the said animal will be hanging in his chiller.
