Leisure Madness in the Forest

The pressure on the forest as a habitat was one of the central topics at the general assembly of hobby hunters Aargau. Rainer Klöti, president of the hobby hunters in the canton, is calling for an organisation with policing powers. “Kind words alone are not enough to deal with the leisure madness in the forest.”

Forest Police Instead of Rangers Without Powers

Klöti would like a small group of specialists with hunting and forestry training who can fine or expel offending individuals. For wildlife humans are a disturbance. More on the topic hunting legislation, hobby hunting and Switzerland.
