 It is with great regret and sadness that we have learned of the sudden passing of one of Ireland's leading deer stalking personalities and former WDAI chairman John Creedon. John Creedon was chairman of the Wild Deer Association of Ireland from 2005 - 2008 and during his tenure contributed significantly to the association’s development into a leading national organisation. A member of the WDAI for almost 20 years he unselfishly devoted him time to the betterment of Ireland’s wild deer herds and those who had similar interests. John was a man who had seen a lot of the world, been involved in deer stalking and bird shooting all his life and a keen wild life photographer meant you where always guaranteed a good story with the John Creedon humour added in for good measure. He will be sadly missed by all hunting and shooting people who were lucky enough to meet him. May he rest in peace - Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

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. |
