Rim Fire Posted February 9, 2023 Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 If they are already getting for nothing why would they pay and it will be the select few that gets to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person at the end of the rifle actually doing the do will likely never see a penny. Unless of course you are the farmer or the game keeper and do your own foxing. You also have the possibility of a decent land owner passing some of it on to cover ammunition etc but I believe they will be few and far between and the money is more likely to be swallowed up in other areas.

sabel25 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Sounds a bit like the grey squirel trappers. A gent put some traps in our woods on our shoot. But never set them and did not check them He was asked to leave and one of our syndicate set his own traps and checked them everyday and cleaned them out for a while and reds returned The Gov pays these trappers and this one did nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieT Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 Don't hold your breath. If it ever gets off the ground It will form part of the environmental grant paid directly to landowners. I'm just waiting for the outcry in the Daily Mail that public money is to be spent on killing cuddly little foxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12gauge82 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 This is a brilliant step forwards and one I hope our shooting orgs will capitalise on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
