Hunting and trapping dates dictated by BirdLife - Hunters Federation

Federation for Hunting & Conservation
The Federation for Hunting & Conservation has issued a statement saying that last nights legal notice regarding the autumn hunting and trapping open seasons, was dictated by BirdLife (Malta) to the Nationalist government.

The Federation said they are sure that the same Nationalist government will leave no stone unturned to once more accommodate BirdLife (Malta) who are pulling the Nationalist government strings regarding anything to do with local hunting and trapping practices.

The Federation went on to say that last nights legal notice reflects exactly Birdlife (Malta) requests and contention at the last Ornis Committee - Malta meeting when they were outvoted. They obviously knew that they could rely on the Nationalist government to save the day on their behalf, FKNK said.

The Federation added that "the illegal hunting excuse has now lost all validity. The Malta Ornis Committee is a joke. The restrictions and abolitions being imposed are not EU regulations, however local vindictive measures by a Maltese Nationalist government acting on BirdLife (Malta) instructions against its Maltese citizens."

The Federation for Hunting & Conservation - Malta (FKNK) concluded by saying that it will resist these provocations and measures with anything within its power.

    It is not difficult to work out FKNK, that if Birdlife had really dictated these terms there would be no hunting or trapping season at all……
