JONO Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Does your nan have crops etc they're damaging? If not then you're breaking the general licence conditions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenbears10 Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 (edited) ok as i read it there are 4 general licences. woodpigeon feature on (1) and (4) which are: To kill or take certain birds (1) - Permits authorised persons to kill or take certain birds, or to take, damage or destroy their nests; or to take or destroy their eggs, for the purposes of: (i) preventing the spread of disease; and (ii) preventing serious damage to livestock, foodstuffs for livestock, crops, vegetables, fruit, growing timber, fisheries or inland waters. To kill or take certain birds (4) - Permits authorised persons to kill or take certain birds, including the taking, damaging or destruction of their nests or the taking or destruction of their eggs for the purposes of preserving public health or public safety That is several reasons you are allowed to shoot them with crop damage only being one of the reasons. Check your facts JONO. defra general licence conditions Edited January 25, 2006 by tenbears10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenbears10 Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 so where does the bit re shooting in a garden come into the license reasons then? cheers KW damage to fruit or vegetables for one. My point was that JONO stated that unless his nan had crops it was out of licence which is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
