This just in, Hunting Salt water crocs
#11940 - 19/03/04 07:23 PM

The NT goverment have layed the ground rules for taking 25 salties per year. I've tried to find the article on the NT news site, but they didn't place it on.

One station owner from Bullo river station, a Marlee Ranacher, has said that shooters will pay $10,000 to shoot one saltie

Now would you guys pay that, if you could go to Africa and shoot one just as big for less?

That is good news if the saltwater croc permits are going ahead.

I never realised how many are killed in the wild right now with the skins exported, so why not a bit of sporting hunting.

Bakes - they will become must have's for hunters having shot everything. The price will be high for a few years and then settle down.

PS Now you see why I said there should be a small domestic quota - $10G - no way!

PPS What are banteng selling for now as trophies?

You don't have enough mate

I have written a letter to the editor of the NT news.

What I've said was I hope they don't price the average hunter out of the game and be more realistic in their pricing. Have to wait and see if it gets published.
