Why shoot wildfowl?
Wildfowling is a trade that goes back centuries. In the last 100 years, the wildfowling clubs and shooting organisations of the UK have turned it from a business that depleted duck and geese populations into a conservation effort that ensures healthy populations of waterfowl. Almost anywhere you find duck and geese, especially around the UK’s coastline, you will find wildfowling clubs, with conservation plans and habitat management strategies. Without them, the UK wouldn’t have the waterfowl populations it does.
Catherine Collop, a PhD student at Bournemouth University, conducted a study on Poole harbour in Dorset, which found that walking causes 100 times more disturbance than wildfowling. Furthermore, that wildfowling accounted for just 0.04% of the disturbance activities on Poole Harbour and that the impact was deemed so low that research predicted that there would be no impact on the survival of birds even if it was increased by 25 times. Catherine’s full PhD can be found here: http://eprints.bournemouth.ac.uk/27069/
Catherine’s research shows just how low an impact wildfowling can have, and also, importantly provides some general information on assessing the likely impact of wildfowling. We are now building on this success and have sponsored a follow-up study looking at how the findings from Poole Harbour can be generalised to any site.
