Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Eradication of TB: Discussion

Mr. Teddy Cashman:

It is an interesting question. There are two aspects to it. First, we are relying on the deer hunter to do the hunting. It can take up to 30 hours, between stalking and hunting, for a deerstalker to bring in an animal. This is the average for the number of deer they bring in. These 30 hours represent a long time, so there is a need to get a return for all those hours worked.
