col s10 Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 i stand corrected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wy111 Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) i stand corrected Not quite corrected. When the General licence was still run by DEFRA, the Jay was taken off for one reason(Pest, I think), but still could be shot for another(Protect nesting birds). A strange anomaly, but now "England" have taken over, it seems to have the old wording. Anyway, I still shoot the *******.

SNAKEBITE Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Never shot one and I don't intend to at the moment. Although a "pest" and on the list there are not enough around here to warrant shooting them. Anyway, you can't eat them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
