Catching Rabbits with Goshawks in Scotland
Спорт
Roy Lupton is in Scotland flying his goshawk on rabbits over pointers. It is fast-action sport - and a beautiful combination of man, dog and bird working together.

Why shoot rabbits?
Rabbits are a major agricultural pest, costing the British economy an estimated £100million a year*. More than half of this figure is accounted for by damage to agricultural crops, with winter wheat, barley and oats being the most vulnerable. In terms of annual yield, a loss of 1% per rabbit per hectare (2.5 acres) has been recorded but overall yields can be reduced by up to 20%. Rabbits also graze on pasture, impacting on newly sewn areas, reducing available grass for livestock and the yield of crops cut for silage.
Wild rabbits burrow under roads, railways and through archaeological sites, causing subsidence and other damage to buildings.
They also contaminate the soil with their urine and droppings, so nothing but weeds can survive. In addition, rabbits chew through the bark of trees, killing nursery stock or young saplings and preventing the natural regeneration of woodland.
A Government survey in 1995 put the UK rabbit population at 37.5 million. This number is thought to have dramatically increased. Farmers and landowners now have a statutory responsibility to manage rabbit populations on their land, to prevent them causing damage to neighbouring properties.

Imagine riding a horse, with a Goshawk on your hands and a dog on the front searching for rabbits. This would be the definition of paradise to me.
the hawk is the main focus but seriously guys; those dogs are gorgeous!
It's very cool to see how well is trained this Goshawk!
Brilliant stuff love to see the Raptors at work, roy is a boss at training his birds
Roy ,that was a well earned result for all the time and effort you put in with your birds ,a really enjoyable video!!!.

Nature Himalaya uh what are you talking about
Check out the imp job on the decks.... hawking rabbits with an Albidus type Gos that is different to a nominate Gos as being more aerialist and then flown on rabbits... like owning a Ferrari but your local speed limit is 30 mph...... it's plainly to stand out if you ask me in being one of the "Boys" cliques...
great vid ..nice one
I barely registered the movement of the rabbit, the hawk had already took flight!!! So cool!!! Respect!!!
Please do you sell some
Brilliant, thanks

I have had to put my Harris up for now as she has bbroken her back tallon so I get my hunting fix from these videos

Beautifull goshawk

How does the goshawk kill the rabbits ? Is it suffocation ? Surely the goshawk wouldn’t be heavy enough?

"Man, dog, and bird working together"? The 'man' doesn't seem to be doing anything, sitting in his ATV. Not very "sporting" in my opinion, although I love birds and dogs, humans not so much... EDIT: Especially rich men on "estates" - rich people disgust me...
