Why is there a limit of 10 hunters per hound team for scent-trailing of Sambar Deer?
A limit of 10 hunters per hound team for scent-trailing of Sambar Deer was introduced by the Wildlife (Game) Regulations 2001 at the request of hunting organisations and individual hunters. It is generally accepted amongst hunters that hound teams should have no more than 10 hunters. This limit is reflected in the Australian Deer Association’s Code of Conduct.
