Very effective, I would say more than 50% of deer in the UK are shot after being spotted via thermal in daylight hours.

Not long before the Scottish Government approves night shooting with thermal scopes under license.

If Red deer were not a native species here the government would have already gone down the 1080 and heli gunner route.

They want densities of 2-3 deer per square KM and no more, even if a grid square is in the middle of a lake!

No public hunting allowed on National Nature Reserves etc... all contacted out.

Madness!
