chris pp Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Rather than me waffling on, this is a fairly good basic site to start with...http://ecologie.nature.free.fr/pages/mammiferes/lapin_de_garenne.htm Rabbits simply can't live in ground that floods or becomes waterlogged, but as I put in the earlier post..""the structure is effectively all stones and rocks and yet rabbits have rapidly arrived where the spoil has been piled much higher than the water level.""Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mareille Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 [quote user="chris pp"][quote user="Chancer"]We actually have much more abundance of wildlife here than in my local Ashdown Forest in the UK which makes me understand the conservation aspect of La Chasse.[/quote]Always fascinates me when someone says something like that, any chance of a few examples of how you came to that "conclusion"?Chris[/quote]how about exmoor that had one of most healthy red deer populations due to the management practices of those hunting them. Or the fact that shooting estates tend to have higher numbers of songbirds etc due to the way they conserve habitat for game birdsChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris pp Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Sorry, I live in France and we were discussing France. As I said before, two completely different Countries with different geographies, different species and different practices. We could compare and discuss the differences, although I know so little of the UK these days it's unlikely that I could contribute much with regard to the current situation, but I'm sure others may be able to.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mareille Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I Was under the impression you were asking for examples of why someone might think hunting could be good for conservation I sorry I didn't realise the examples had to come from FranceChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris pp Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 This was what I was responding to..""We actually have much more abundance of wildlife here than in my local Ashdown Forest in the UK which makes me understand the conservation aspect of La Chasse.""Now, I know my French can be a bit iffy, but my English is still quite good.[;-)]Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mareille Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 And this is what I was responding toAlways fascinates me when someone says something like that, any chance of a few examples of how you came to that "conclusion"?Maybe my understanding of English has gone up the creekChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris pp Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Just try putting the two together and I'm sure you will see that it makes sense.[;-)]""We actually have much more abundance of wildlife here than in my local Ashdown Forest in the UK which makes me understand the conservation aspect of La Chasse.""and""Always fascinates me when someone says something like that, any chance of a few examples of how you came to that "conclusion"?""Does that help?Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
