Hunting is about wildlife management: The function of hunting is to maintain sustainable populations of foxes, hares and deer, in balance with other indigenous wildlife and in numbers acceptable to farming interests. Our concern is with responsible management of populations and not simply with pest control. We therefore aim to maintain and enhance natural wildlife habitats that also benefit other wildlife. Thus we are committed to monitoring the health and fitness of many species of wildlife in the countryside.
