The licence for the old Gloucestershire pilot zone was issued on the 25th August 2017 and runs until 31st January 2022. There is no specific mention of how long culling periods WILL be – caging cannot go on after the start of December and ‘free shooting’ must end by the end of January… we’ll keep you updated as and when we hear more.
The minimum target is 160 and the maximum is 580. So game on. Camp is up and running and it’s business as usual. All zones need help checking for traps and peanuts.
We have just spoken to BBC radio Gloucestershire to be broadcast in the morning.
We expect the North Cotswold zone licence to be issued shortly.
