If 32k deer are shot under licence how many additional are shot by poaching.

The Herald article also says that poached deer are being exported,and that poached deer are picked up st known locations for export.

If this much is known,why are we wastjng so much time tackling indovodal poachers instead of targetting the dealers of poached venison.

Also interseting thing would be to take the number of culled deer is 32k,and the Wdai estimate that ten percent of registered stalkers sell to game dealers,that would mean we would be looking at 3,200 deer sold to game dealers.

Would be very interested to see the number of carcssses the game dealers claim to have handled.
