Re: How do you feel about crocodile hunting?

Perhaps limited safari hunting on a permit system on an ecologically sustainable basis..... of course.

I think the numbers have significantly increased since hunting has been stopped and problems have increased but let's not go "open slather" on them yet.




I think the numbers are so great now, a proper sustainable harvest could be possible.

Of course a safari based trophy hunting approach for a limited number of "big ones". To put the fear of Man into the old fellows.

But also a sustainable harvest say for hides from smaller beasts. They are numerous.

Under CITES over 600 saltwater crocs are alreayd harvested. This is never reported. Only the hatred towards safari hunting by the greenies. Also the famring industry, the Urwins and Australia zoo etc is always mentioned. But they would be competitors against a safari industry, who would take hidden and secret opportunities away from these profit making businesses.

If a safari industry was ever permitted, I would not want to see all saltie crocs going to money bags foreignors. A number of permits should be available under a tag or balloted system. Where then a hunt could be organised or even done through access on private land. Or through Aboriginal lands. Not everyone needs their hands held for a hunt.
