Well I think its till ok, because on the permision forms it says it can be the land owner, tenant, agent, or occupier. Basicly who ever is looking after that land with the land in their name can give you permision
I found a field local to me it has couple of horses in ....
counted 30 rabbits out eating in daylight not shy at all...
Kept checking and today there was a lady feeding her horses..
So i aproached her and asked if i could cull the rabbit population..
She said that she would like them gone as they are eating more food than her horses but that she rents the land from an estate agent..
So now i am back to square one lol

I THINK HER WORD IS GOOD ENOUGH MATE.JUST BE CAREFULL.IF SHE RENTS IT AND THE ISSUE OF THE HOURSES LEGS WITH RABBIT HOLES.MARKOriginally Posted by Strawman1368
It should be ok but NOT if her lease expressly denied shooting rights. That bit would need to be checked.

Check her rental agreement. If there is nothing in writing about shooting rights being denied then they are automatically transfered to her for pest control. Get her permission IN WRITING.
I had the same problem mate. I asked for a written permision slip from the farmer, which would give me amunity from any trouble
You should really ask the women if she has the shooting rights. Most farmers do even if rented.(or they have sold them on)
If she said cull them, then cull them.
I would recomend a written permision slip though.
Just to be safe.

Go to the estate agent if they are the owner or ask her who the owner is. If she is the tennant, it does not mean she has the permission to allow you to shoot unless the owner has delegated those rights to her.
Failure to do this could leave you in breach of the law (albeit technically) and this may impact on the insurance cover you have taken out.
There is nothing to stop you from taking the matter further and gaining permission or speaking to someone further up the chain.
You want the permission in writing - no question.
