I think you can - at least down here - theres an exemption on the hunting act for the use of a single dog for such work. Ive used a long dog against
Rabbits too and I agree its much more effective and probably kinder than a bullet. I dont own one myself but i have used to have access to a mates collie cross lurcher cross pyrenean mountain dog cross ...i dunno wolf probably
and she was deadly effective on
Fox ,
Rabbit, and egg colector
I wouldnt be suprised if the raspberies did back the use of snares, i know of rspb, national trust, and wildlife trust sites that use them to form a cordon sanitaire arround terneries and heathland GNB sites and the like. I would imagine that they like to keep this fairly low profile tho
