I rough shoot and also have a hand in running a syndicate. Big game would never be in my sights.
The Grouse mob are currently being pursued by Chris Packham and his cronies. In part I respect Packham, but he is not always correct. Apparently there are (were) a very limited number of breeding pairs of Hen Harriers which I believe we're satellite tagged. I further understand that some of those pairs have disappeared off of the radar so to speak in Grouse moor areas. The Grouse shooting fraternity carries some weight, but IF they are responsible for the demise of a seriously threatened species then I do not wish them well and they are fools to themselves.
