Comment on Falconry in Australia by Michael Calvin

Hi everyone, If you’ve heard of, or read about any bad or illegal practices with regard to ‘falconry’ here in Australia, could you please get in contact at calvinsdownunda@hotmail.com or call me on 0434495620. Don’t get the wrong idea, it’s not a witch hunt, just that I would like to get a better perspective of why falconry is not legal here in Australia. Something can only (usually) get banned or made illegal because it’s bad, or those involved are flouting the laws. I don’t need any names or anything like that, I just need to know what’s so bad about it, or at least why the relevant Gov’t depts think so…there must be something! Thanks, Michael.

Anyone in Australia who is interested in the use of falconry techniques and free flying exercise for pre-release captive raptors, who is doing it now or would like to get involved, please call me on 0434495620 anytime. regards, Michael.

Paul Mander…could you please give me a call, thanks.

David and I use to Ice Skate at Whitestown Arena in1992,he was fast,before he left for Colorado he was kind enoughto give me a
print of White Throated Sparrow.We had it framed and it has proudly
hung in our home since then.
He will be remembered as a Kind Hearted,Modest and just a nice
person.

Hi Paul
Is the use of Falconry for pest control purposes prohibited in Australia NSW?
If not, can you recommend someone in Sydney who has the knowledge and skill to use falconry to control pigeons in a sensitive CBD environment. ?
All your comments are welcome.
Thanks
Gonz

Hello Paul.
I live in Victoria. Know of a owl that has been brought in blind. Clearly, this will not be released. If i wanted to give this bird a home for its next 10 yrs, what licence(s) and training would i need to receive?
regards
Shelle
