Not being a duck shooter myself, I'd just like to say that they shoot
more than ducks in Victoria, like pigs, goats, rabbits, foxes, deer, the
odd gangland member, other undesirables and too many innocent bipedal
hominids......

Besides, there are too many good birds down here to avoid
forever..........................

Yours in all things "green"

........actually has an advocacy group, the "Victorian Hunting Advisory
Committee", which is a
part of the Department of Sustainability and Environment.

Moreover, they're using the suspended season to get a ballistics expert
from
the US to come out and educate the hunters on how to shoot more
"humanely".

It's enough to make we want to boycott Victoria as a holiday
destination.
