In Northern Ireland, the Department of the Environment today reviewed the temporary wildfowling suspension introduced on 7th January, and confirmed that it will continue, due to continuing hard ground conditions across Northern Ireland. Species such as ducks, geese and shore waders are having difficulty feeding in the frozen ground, threatening the birds’ natural survival. The suspension, under the Wildlife Order, will continue until Wednesday 20th January. Although woodcock & snipe are not covered by this suspension in Northern Ireland, Countryside Alliance Ireland, in the interest of good conservation practice, calls for all its members to continue to observe a voluntary cessation of shooting of such birds until the wildfowling ban has ended. |
