See a couple of dickheads in our region caught unlawful hunting in a forest block during the lockdown.
Using illegal tracking gear as well. Good they both got arrested and appeared in court.
One thing going hunting when you shouldnt be but using the lockdown to do some poaching as well these guys need the book thrown at them
What’s illegal tracking gear ?
I thought everyone uses tracking on their dogs these days .
I hear a couple of shots going off most days lately, police actively checking road ends for vehicles...I have no idea if anyone caught as yet.
Got a link to that one @deer243 ?Quote:

It doesn’t really matter anyway, they are idiots and deserve what they get .
anthing between 150and 155Mhz is part of the NZ Land Mobile Spectrum and used operators who "lease space", this can be anyone including Emergency services.Quote:

He has caused nothing but trouble on many levels around this district for a long time.
A shame he is portrayed as a 'hunter' !!!

Where in any of that does it suggest he is or was a hunter or was hunting illegally ? Or have I missed something ?Quote:

Should be but if we leave these criminals out in public to do as they please then it makes the public scared and more in favor of having armed police and reductions in freedoms to make them feel "safer" which is of course the end goal.Quote:

The guy who taught me how to hunt used to laugh about the people he saw going over the river "hunting" with a sack and a spade.Quote:
