After they told us they wouldn't implement the rule if we did as they asked ,we complied 100% and more,even their 2 advisory committees said not to ,but Thwaites outraging over 2000 registered hound using deer hunters signed the death warrant to over 6000 yes 6000 loyal foxhounds harriers bassets and crosses there of plus cross bred beagles and blood hounds,Yep thats right only pure bred beagles and pure bred bloodhounds can be used to scent trail Sambar deer. Over 96% of hounds used for this are foxhound or foxhound crosses. They say we can still use them for hunting vermin on private property . Crap they are trained and bred to hunt only sambar. With most councils only allowing 2 dogs per residence,they have to go to make way for the beagles and blood hounds legaly required to hunt.IF YOU are one of those blind or just plain ignorant people who welcome this new ruling beware because your sport is next,first you will be put out of the national parks the powers that be will say you can hunt where the doggers used to hunt the following year or so they will close it down full stop. There already is a govt. memo circulating thru CFA and other depts.stating the future goal is to shut down ALL parks allowing access only during school holiday periods etc

. I kid you not. So all hunters if you are asked for help or support in the ensuing few months please don't hesitate to oblige as you all know UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL yes there will most likely be protest rallies etc.You duck shooters out there should especially lend a voice cos your not getting a fair deal either.
