Youth For The Environment (Y4TE) has said in a statement that it commends BirdLife on its continuous effort to drive the political parties to develop a strategy that would suit the public as well as the hunting community.

Y4TE said that it “supports the cause and calls upon political parties to take a stand and prevent land from being taken over by hunting activities which would inhibit the public from being able to access such areas.

“Hunting laws should be enforced with patrols being set up if required to ensure that no wildlife is hunted outside of the designated seasons and that protected species are given special attention to ensure their safety,” Y4TE said.

Y4TE concluded by saying that it “also calls upon members of the general public to report any illegal activities which they come across and to also alert members of related organisations to pressure the authorities to act fast should any such activities be discovered.”
