So you don't need a hunting permit as a landowner or agent of a landowner controlling pest species on private property anyway?
If somebody has your permission to hunt pest species on your land, aren't they considered an agent of yours under the Act?
And you can't hunt on public land?
So does this actually prevent anybody from bow hunting?
I suppose deer aren't a pest species so you can't bow hunt those?

[womble]

I see the aborigines are still allowed to use their traditional bows and arrows like in the old west.
When they hunted buffalo on horseback.
Not many buffalo roaming the plains of south Australia nowadays admittedly, however as it is their tradition, we must include a caveat for them

[womble]

Oh and they also used crossbows in medieval times apparently.
I didn’t know that.

They can use rocks out Yalata way here in S.A. to stone wombats for tucker. Need to get the wombat in the headlights first though to slow it down.

When did we used to be able to hunt public land,and where ? Aside from game reserves and theoretical unalienated crown land,neither i,or my father,have heard of being able to hunt public land in SA.
As Bladeracer says,there appears to be substantial loopholes in the current written legislation. I bet they change the wording to that pretty quickly.
What part says culling is no longer allowed ?

Ummm, I didn't think abos used bows and arrows.? Spears and Boomerangs was my understanding.

Actually some evidence of them using bows in general north. I'd imagine there's the possibility of some trade with the Papuan people.

Technically....aboriginals don't need a permit....ergo they can use bows if they choose for hunting. Same as landowners, landowners family, and agents of landowners in the act of controlling unprotected species causing damage on aforementioned landowners property. Loopholes.

I don't think it really matters how our indigenous brothers hunt, boomerang, spear, rifle or trap. I think it's only fair they can take whatever they want, however they please
I'm dead against being told that I can't hunt, I feel being able to harvest food in all forms provided it's sustainable and not a protected species should be our God given right just as it is for the indigenous people of Australia.

We're also only one step away from needing a permit to fish.

Yer just crown land and reserves i guess. Doesnt matter now i guess...

[womble]

I just feel if you’re going to stipulate an exception to the ruling for cultural reasons then it should apply to the relevant culture.
There’s no historical evidence of indigenous peoples hunting deer prior to European settlement.
It was the settlers that brought the deer here for the purpose of hunting, because tradition and or because kangaroo tastes like ass.
Ideally you shouldn’t have two sets of rules for different people anyway because Australia. And because everyones ancestors hunted. Ancestral vegans being the exception, were too weak to hunt and died out due to starvation.
And yet the legislation as a whole is written specifically for vegans.

Count yourself lucky, atleast you can still hunt with bows under certain conditions.
Hunting with bows period is banned here in Tassie.

Well you can still hunt one game reserves and unalienated crown land, if you can actually find it. So nothing has changed there

Islands and Torres strait etc maybe, but no one can agree mainlanders did.
