True, its the same for all game, it is supposed to stop people from using vehicles to kill animals by hitting them and loading them into the boot.

Excuse the lack of scholarly relevance but its a place to start. Interesting thought and legal application of road kill colection and use.

Correct. Using a vehicle as a means to kill an animal.

"FOREIGNER" a word that makes my blood pressure hit the roof!!!! as i have carried and still do (unfortunately) ! that "STICKER" on me everyday and taking the fall for every idiotic action made by human been. I am surprised that search header was permitted by our forum angel guardians as poaching is poaching no matter where u r from or what use or way it is done (shooting with wrong caliber rifles, snares, traps, knives, teeth, shoes trowing, tank shooting, planes bombing etc............) as silly the means can be poaching is poaching and as far as i am aware interracial relationship has not been forbidden by our government yet???? so black, blue, red, white, yellow does not mean ur not Irish in this days and age!!!!!!! just because it is ALIEN to u, it has to be for the rest of us!! no matter the situation.
On that note i hope those guys will get caught very soon as for all the poachers in this country so that we can still enjoy are way of life for many more years to come.
Rant over Nick out!;)

AS i said i was quoting something i read and yes there are plenty of irish lads that have, as you say superior butchering skills also. As i also said i dont have a problem with foreign nationals, in fact i have friends that are. so please dont assume that i am in anyway racist or otherwise. Or that i was indicating that all foreign nationals are involved in poaching.

Anyone tell me what can be done about it?
First we'd need proof of it.
Secondly would the Garda do anything about it?
And if these aren't caught they'd move on somewhere else. It's things like this that taking the law into our own hands comes into place. But who will actually stand up to it?

Never said you were.
I was pointing out your statement that 'would have the skills with knives to carry something like this out' has no bearing on weather the cow was butchered by Irish nationals, foreigners or aliens.
It makes no sense what so ever.

Erm.................... report it to Gardaí & NPWS

Always handy in these situations

Not unless you there's a complaint made (best person to do this is landowner)

Are you suggesting a few deer stalkers can organise a wild west type lynch mob, give 'em a fair trial & hang em :eek: :rolleyes:

Vigilantism, especially by firearm owners, would/should definitely raise a few eyebrows within an Garda Síochana.

What can be done?

Simple!

Get the landowners to report it. Gardaí probably won't bother unless it's the landowner who makes the complaint. Property owners rights are taken more seriously than concerned citizens in these cases.

You could try to get the press involved. Even a local politician or two could cause action to be taken.

But the landowner needs to start the ball rolling.

One shot on kill

Any witness needs to start the ball rolling.

And from what I've gathered this year some land owners are afraid to do anything.

This thread was on shaky enough ground at points and it's now devolved into sarcastic, and somewhat inappropriate posts.

As such i' closing the thread. If the OP wishes to discuss this further feel free to contact me or another mod.
