Fieldsports Britain - Alex Hogg, Scottish Gamekeepers Association - episode 41

It's the man who wants buzzards back on the vermin list. In this week's programme, Alex Hogg, chairman of the Scottish Gamekeepers Association, talks about that as well as the Wildlife & Natural Environment Bill which is due to be debated by the Scottish Parliament. Why does the Scottish Government hate deer, snaring and muir burn? Will they really classify pheasants as an "invasive non-native species"? What changes are proposed to the game laws and will they include the spectre of licensing shooters? How were terriers were saved during the hunting ban in Scotland? And how does a charming oldfashioned gamekeeper like Alex cope with the dark corridors of Holyrood?

@palmer3977 useful comment, did you miss the point about the licenes?
use your brain, you only fuel the antis with that kind of rubbish
good video though

[@palmer3977]

if i had invested £1,000's in pheasant stock & they were being taken by predators, whether it be a fox or buzzard they would have to be dispatched, sod the law, it would be done on the quiet, all predators have to be kept in check otherwise whats the point in managing game or even the countryside, you may as well let it all return to nature is that what they want

[@QuadyModo]

So would every gamekeeper...

Miners n steelworkers wer made unemployed , anyone who is cruel n causes psychological torment on innocent animals shud b given poisoned pheasant for supper , flooding woodlands with francepheasants isn't helpin wildlife , its adding further harm , its control freakery , as bad as putting slug pellets down , an unnatural poisonous world ,
