Oh no....that's not what happend to the maarhund is it?
No, the maarhund was picked up by the local wildlife consultant after having been reported as being caught to the local authorities. It will be weighed, measured and checked over for deceases.

OK, so at least answer this (as it's killing me :-P :lol: ) - is it for trapping or training?

Right, no flag waving emoticon for anyone.
The pipes and drums are for foxes. Pipes to get in and out of course and the drums for them to nest in.

I do not think the substation is important in this case, the whole area is one big nature reserve, full of animals, rabbits, foxes, hares, deer.
Now maarhund as well.
Guess that was just a good place to put it.
When we get up in the morning and go to the range normally a few animals are grazing as we look up towards the butts.
The landscape here is indeed very diverse.

Sadly as an electrical engineer my first concern would be for the substation and not the flea ridden soddin foxes :lol: :lol: :lol:

It is not that unusual to see a Red amble across at the 300m point and there is always the Hare Christel spotted end of last week at the 500m point, apparently it was as big as a sheep, Danish shooters point to her and say "That is the woman that saw the Hare that was this big <------------------------------------->"

Sounds like a great place
Maybe you should report your 'giant hare' sighting...could be a new species :P

A few weeks ago we were shooting at Stickledown - when the cars started to come back from the butts, after the lunchtime hooter, a group of at least 8 deer got up out of the heather at about 700 yrds and ran off into the woods - they had been there the whole time we were shooting....I love the irony of abundant wildlife at shooting ranges
