Man started as a hunter in the olden times and continues to do so. At that time his own survival was at stake but in today’s world it is done for recreation and for the thrill of it. But now each country has made stringent rules when it comes to poaching or hunting of endangered species and without any valid reason. In Australia the hunting laws are well laid out but then the situation is slightly different as the number of feral and invasive pests are growing in numbers.
The above mentioned animals are proving a threat to the ecology and before we go on to hunting and why it’s legal in Australia it is necessary to go to the beginning. When the European settlers came to Australia way back in the 18th century they didn’t come alone. They brought some of their native animals for breeding and to use them as a source of food but over the years these species have adapted to the new environment and have grown exponentially. Now some of them pose a serious threat to the native plants and animal species and the Australian Agriculture is incurring huge loss. So the Government not only has made hunting of these feral and invasive pests legal; they in fact encourage it. All you need is a valid firearms license and the permission of the person on whose land you want to hunt and then you are good to go. Some of the most commonly hunted animals here include the hare, rabbits, pigs, goats, feral cattle and water buffalos. Apart from the local hunters there are others who come from outside to practice their skills as a marksman and experience the thrills and excitement of a good hunting expedition. According to the last study conducted by the University of Queensland there are about 300, 000 active hunters and out of a population of about 23 million there were about one million people who dealt with firearms. So it’s an established fact that firearms industry is a big part of the national economy and thus you will come across a lot of shops on the local market as well as online. Safari Firearms Australia is one of the premier online shops in Australia and they also have a shop in Sydney which has gained immense popularity for offering excellent products from some great brands. This online store offers its clients a variety of firearms, parts, ammunition, apparel, hunting and shooting gears and optics. The use of optics have changed the game and those who believe in ethical hunting strongly advocate it as it enhances your skills and the animal suffers minimum trauma.
