Message: <blockquote data-quote="Johnny Allan" data-source="post: 1421227" data-attributes="member: 60985">I think that there are much greater threats to wildlife in this country than the cessation of killing birds/animals for fun (unabating, uncontrolled and unsustainable population growth for example), and do not believe that it would be the disaster that some would make it out to be.As to the original theme of this thread. I do not think Shooting Times unreasonable in not running the RSPB advert. One can see how it could be potentially offensive to some of it's readers and they say that they do not condone wildlife crime and have allowed column space for an RSPB article regarding wildlife crime. However, I think it was a clever idea of the RSPB to try and run the ad which I think led to a win/win situation.</blockquote>
