>>949484>you say this because you live in civilisation and all the dangerous animals have been cleared from ever sneaking up on you while you are asleep and eating your face.>while I sympathise with your good nature, I do not respect your very bourgeoisie outlook on nature.If you poach from me on my land you steal from me and my family.
When I was a kid ( a long time ago!) we used get a lot of poachers they would come in with dogs with big wooden blocks attached to their collars and leave empty cartridges on doorsteps as threats. Thhey would shoot any animal that moved and leave out snares that they did not check and were very cruel to the terriers the brought to throw into sets and warrens (with nets).
They would fire on me with birdshot from a distance and I would return same and made a game out of stalking them but that stopped after they murdered a neighbor by shooting him in the back repeatedly with a ,22. After that I would go out with my dad and neighbors and they stopped coming only after we found burnt their cars on the place they entered from road
We looked after the game on our land well and left copse and released rabbit and fowl.
It was shit to find those bastards had killed it all (even very young animals).
I hate them but it is a long time ago and probably in a place you have never been to so what do I know.
I will always remember seeing a derr that had dragged itself half way across a field with a massive bloodtrail with a gut shoot and the look in its eye (I put it down). They just shoot it for the hell of it.
So I know poachers and I fucking hate them. They would do it to sell to butchers for cash the likes rabbit and wild pheasant.
Horrible cruel vicious scrum.
