Natural England calls for voluntary restraint on licensed shooting during the severe cold weather spell
8 January 2010
For the duration of the severe cold weather period we are currently experiencing, Natural England is requesting that its licensees and members of the public show restraint to avoid activities that may cause unnecessary disturbance to wildfowl and other water birds already suffering as a result of the cold weather.
Similar requests have been made to the public and members by the RSPB, BASC and the BTO. For more information see the Wildlife Management and Licensing Service
section.
