"Hawke’s Bay police say they are using thermal binoculars and drones to track down illegal hunters."

Well that doesn't remind me of Sleeping Dogs at all.

Especially considering that these "illegal hunters" are most likely people struggling to feed their families in a climate of politically planned impoverishment. So this is yet another example of criminalising people for being poor.

Residents living next to the former #RoyalOak golf course in #Saanich fear that #IllegalHunting has caused a “significant drop" in the local population of #CaliforniaQuail.

“Since early July, several people have witnessed and reported frequent trapping of quail to the Capital Regional District #CRD and other authorities,” said a resident, who wished to remain anonymous. “We believe the trappers have almost decimated the quail population on and around the property.”

#BritishColumbia regulations only allow for California #quail to be hunted during October and November, by someone with a #hunting license. However, as the 10.94 hectare piece of land, adjacent to #ElkBeaverLake Regional Park, is owned and managed by the CRD, any hunting of wildlife, including quail, is a violation of a #CRDparks bylaw.

The COS and the CRD have asked that anyone with information should contact the Report All #Poachers and Polluters hotline at 1-877-952-7277.
