  1. well it seems the done thing seeing as they were introduced anyway.......personally I dont have an issue with that but there will be some bunny huggers out there... we live on a very small island and no part of it is unmanaged wilderness
  2. yes its something that needs sorting right now,the cost of damage must be in the £m annually im sure.common faults on OHL are caused by vermin damage for a start. If we were allowed to carry sawnoff shotguns on our harnesses we would stand a better chance of terminating the issue...
  3. no,there are areas of land within the uk that have been cleared succesfully:001_smile: http://www.thisisthewestcountry.co.uk/news/cornwall_news/10653085.Slaughter_of_squirrels_planned_for_Lizard_Peninsula__VOTE/ also plans lay ahead for the total removal in this country forsure,they are costing £m in damage... i shot over 20 in 1 farm after they ate their way through the wire loom in the combine harvester.
