I AM a regular cyclist and it seems over the past month every time l go out for a pedal there are hordes of people in 4x4s with their flat caps and wellies, shotgun under arm, blasting anything that moves.

They seem to congregate round any wooded area.

These so-called country folk obviously couldn’t care less about wildlife, which in my opinion over the years is getting less and less and must already be finding it hard to survive in ever-decreasing habitats.

Are there no laws against this vandalism?
