Schedule 5 animals (vermin)

I've not seen partridges in Shivajinagar. The quails and rabbits are bred and not trapped.

Well we can start off our own game reserve - buy a bunch of these "farm bred" birds and mammals and leave them in the farm to be harvested when required.
Any thoughts on this?

If by harvested you mean a formal release and shoot thing - then I am quite sure there will be some law or the other against it!

BTW - you may find that you would not be able to legally raise/ breed pretty much any of the native Indian species...

Though I'm not animal loving freak or a vegetarian I have never understood why would anyone want to kill or hurt a living creature for sport (fun/sport/a good day out).

What surprises me more is someone would breed and raise life just to kill it for sport.

Aww thats too bad.

Amk,
Even plants breathe. In fact in breathing itself a number of living organisms are killed every second.
Are not crops harvested and then eaten. Do they not bleed the green blood (white or whatever color),
do they not die when they are harmed.
I hope that answers your question.
/S/

And this is different from poultry farming - how?

Hi Sniper,

Its been discussed again bottom line is .."You can't keep INDIAN wild birds and you can't release foreign birds" so no chance for a reserve...

Hmm - thanks Inder. I guess the closest country where we can go for a good hunt would be Pakistan then. Sorry might be OT - any other nearby country where hunting is legal and is safe to go there.

Guys, you've got my thoughts wrong. I eat animals, plants, anything I am allowed to eat. I'll slaughter them for food; I breathe due to necessity, but I'd feel odd to kill living creatures for fun.

If some creature or living being is a pest or harms me I can understanding killing it.

Sniper, thanks for the science lesson.

Mundaire, poultry is farmed for food. Not for sport/fun.

I did not say I am against this, I just said that I don't understand why anyone would do that. What pleasure can anyone derive out of that?

Sniper - Nepal has legal hunting....

AMK - We were discussing game birds, and unlike trophy hunting; the birds you shoot are not stuffed and mounted, they are cooked and consumed. If you haven't been to a live bird shoot, it would be difficult for me to explain how much fun it can be! Anyhow, different strokes for different folks...

Cheers!

Well, if they're actually eaten, not only by the shooter (who may not have the capacity to eat the entire kill) but by anyone (especially the poor and needy) then I see no problem with it.

You see my point, as long as the kill is put to good use I am cool with it and would love to join in too.

AMK the science lesson was in a lighter vein

no hard feelings.

Are you sure about that Abhijeet? I remember asking a local angler(near Fewa lake in Nepal) if hunting was legal and he told me it wasn't.
