Re: 2 videos of hunting of wild boars in Hungaria

In most ethical hunting circles, the shooter with the red band around his hat would be fined and sent home on the spot. Shooting the biggest pig out of a band is a capital error ! It will always be a nursing sow (large boars are always solitary) and most likely the leading one. Not only will there be a orphaned litter condemned to die and a disorganized band left to ravage crops. Great hunting feat indeed, killing a mother and 8 pigglets with the same bullet... Ethically, only small or yearling boars are taken out of a band. The (accidental) on the run shooting of a big sow is only accepted if she ran alone and was mistaken for a boar (this may happen when companies have been disbanded by the hounds).

In my corner of the woods, such a disrespectful "hunter" would be fined 40 € per kg exceeding 60 kg (dressed weight) for his 1st "mistake". And, for a subsequent offense, he would be fined the same and asked to leave...
