One hundred and fifty-two chapters have their own laws
A total of 7 people participated in this hunting trip, including 5 men and 2 women, driving 3 large pickup trucks. Since there were more wolves and less meat, Katie was assigned to Pavey's car, and Jim had to follow, while Harrison
He was driving his own pickup truck. There was a large two-story iron cage in the back compartment, which contained four hunting dogs. Hong Tao didn't know the specific breeds. Because of the cold weather, the outside of the dog cages was covered with a thick waterproof tarpaulin.
Hong Tao and Irene were the only three people left in Old Gale's car, so at Irene's insistence, Hong Tao gave up the comfortable passenger seat and ran to the back seat with Irene.
After loading the things and assigning the personnel, the two vehicles towed a snowmobile with a trailer and hit the road. According to Harrison's plan, the destination of this hunting was a hunting ground about 200 kilometers north of Toronto.
, it is said that it is close to Algonquin Provincial Park. Every winter, a large number of animals run out of the park and look for food near villages and towns close to humans, so there are more prey.
In fact, according to Old Gale's introduction, you don't have to travel that far at all. There are several hunting grounds within 100 kilometers of Toronto where you can hunt. But because of Hong Tao's existence, you have to find one with more connections.
Hunting grounds, because according to Canadian law, people without a hunting license are not allowed to hunt, and even hunting grounds are not allowed to enter.
The owner of the private hunting ground and Harrison are comrades in the military and have a close relationship. They can provide some convenience for Hong Tao to apply for a hunting license. Of course, it is within the legal scope. In Canada, except for your biological parents,
Basically no one will break the law for others because the price of breaking the law is too high.
Last time we mentioned that you need to apply for a fishing license when fishing in Canada. Now let’s talk about hunting. This is a country where you need a license for everything you do. Thinking from our accustomed point of view, the government of this country is really stingy. Most of the country’s
There are no people in the area, and the lake
There are countless lakes, dense forests, and wild animals are almost in danger. It would be great if everyone can hunt them at will. As a government, if we don’t focus on national issues such as increasing GDP, why do we have to focus on the few fish everyone catches?
Fish, here are those small animals you caught.
But Canadians don’t think so. They like hunting. It’s no wonder that since the North American continent was discovered by Europeans, people came here for the furs of various animals. Big oil fields and big minerals were not popular at that time.
Whoever controls the fur trade is a rich man, even several European countries because of this trivial matter
Things got violent. France, Britain, Spain, the Netherlands and the native Indians here all focused on animals. The strange thing is that even if they kill them so desperately, there are still so many animals in North America. Although there are still so many animals in North America, although there are fewer animals than before
Numerous species have become extinct, but if some are not extinct, will there still be room for people to live?
In addition to this natural habit, Canadians hunt on the one hand to meet their own entertainment needs, and on the other hand it is also a kind of economic compensation for those backward areas. Local governments sell hunting licenses to provide many economically backward areas.
Provide sufficient financial support to areas to prevent people in those areas from falling too behind.
In fact, the most important point is not mentioned. Hunting is actually a kind of protection of the natural environment, or a macro-control of the natural environment by humans. According to our accustomed thinking, how can hunting animals become protecting animals?
What? Well, every year, provincial governments in Canada send a large number of staff and use various scientific and technological means, including radio tracking and helicopter patrols, to conduct a comprehensive survey of the animal resources in the province.
The results of this survey will become a major standard for issuing animal tags in the next year. Here in Canada, take Ontario, where Toronto is located, as a representative. Even if you have obtained a hunting license and a gun license, you still cannot go hunting.
, why? Because Ontario stipulates which animals can be shot and which animals cannot be shot, so you still have to buy animal tags, which is equivalent to buying the number of animals to shoot.
For example, the small animal tags issued by Ontario this year to wolves, coyotes, hares, squirrels, migratory birds, and birds are 21.05 Canadian dollars. If you want to hunt some hares, then you can go to the hunting ground and buy small animal tags.
, you can buy a tag by shooting one, and outside the hunting grounds recognized by the government, you are not allowed to shoot anything. Even if it is a sparrow, you must not shoot it. Anyone who sees you hunting illegally will report you.
Once the police come to your door, you will be in big trouble. It is not just about the fine. At this time, you will definitely feel that the fine is the lightest punishment. In a country where credit is king, any of your items may lower your credit.
If your behavior is recorded, it means that this stain will accompany you throughout your life.
As a small example, as everyone knows, Gao Xiaosong, a Chinese musician, was caught by the police in the United States while driving under the influence. In addition to being fined, he also had to be under labor surveillance for a period of time. This was not the end of his life.
He is unable to obtain a gun license in the United States because he has the stain of drunk driving and is considered a person with imperfect autonomy. US law does not allow such a person to hold a gun. I am afraid that you will commit the same habit that day and get another gun.
Use a gun to hurt someone.
In addition to small animals, you also have to buy large animal tags for large animals such as antelopes and black bears. Different types have different prices. For animals that are smaller in number and need protection, the provincial government will not issue them.
Tags, or less issued, are sold to hunters through auction bidding, and the higher bidder gets it.
The price of these tags varies every year. If the government intends to protect that kind of animal, it can just limit the number of tags issued. Then part of the money from selling the tags is used for the construction of public service facilities in remote areas, and part is used for animal protection.
.I would like to add here that the figures of these funds are all public, and the sources and uses are also listed. You can check them on the government website. This alone is worth our study and pursuit for a long time.
But precisely because of these regulations, it has become a bit difficult for comrades like Hong Tao, Sister Irene and Jim who come here to hunt soy sauce to get over their hunting addiction.
But it doesn’t matter, there are human relationships in any country, and this applies all over the world. The difference is that in some countries, human relationships are paramount, and in some countries, human relationships are restricted by law.
Now that Harrison is here, Hong Tao and the others have chosen the best way that is both legal and enjoyable. His comrade owns a private hunting ground. In this hunting ground, as long as Hong Tao and the others are trained by a licensed hunting teacher in accordance with the law15
After a few hours, you can take photos after passing the exam.
Moreover, this training process can be carried out simultaneously during hunting activities, instead of having to spend several days of special training. After passing the final written test, there will be basically no problem. The practical test is about the safety of gun use, which is very important to Hong Tao.
It's not difficult.
The most convenient thing is that Harrison himself holds a hunting teacher's license. Although these foreigners are unlikely to help Hong Tao cheat, it is still okay to turn a blind eye if the rules allow it.
In addition to the issues of laws and regulations, Old Gale also gave Hong Tao a price list, which is the price of the prey tags that can be purchased in the private hunting ground this year. Foreigners have a custom that is difficult for Chinese people to get used to in a short time, that is, in money
On the other hand, they are father and son, and they have settled accounts. All the ugly things have been said. Unless he is crying and begging you to let him treat you, otherwise if they ask you to go fishing, hunting, etc., you must not treat it as a domestic treat.
I followed others without even bringing a penny with me.
These activities basically all share the expenses. During the actual operation, the organizer may advance the payment. However, after the activity, a detailed consumption list will definitely appear in your mailbox or mailbox. You can follow the prior agreement
way to pay for it.
Hong Tao was not used to these things at first, but with Zhou Xiaoli, a fake foreign devil, being around him every day, he gradually got used to it. It can't be said that he was used to it, but he had no choice but to accept it.
