Quoted By:
Why is the UK such a shit nation for outdoor pursuits?
> no wilderness left, just very rough approximations of it. no old growth forests left (even the 'official' old growth forests that exist have been pruned and tampered with for hundreds of years)
> no freedom to roam in England
> overly restrictive gun and hunting laws
> have to jump through a gorillion bureaucratic hoops if you want to hunt deer, spending a fair bit of money to basically become a professional deer stalker
> have to throw fish back in the water after you catch them
> deer overpopulating our countryside and ruining plant and tree growth, no plans to emulate the sensible populating management policies of saner countries by making hunting more accessible
> bowhunting illegal
The only country I can think of that's worse than the UK for outdoorsy shit is Holland.
