District

– “The Freising police have become aware of a serious case of poaching,” reports the district office: “In the area of ​​the A 92 and the state road 2584 near the airport, the local district owner made the severed skulls of two in an underpass on the motorway in mid-July Red deer stags - well hidden under fresh grass." Since there was no blood on site, it can be assumed "that the skulls were not separated from the animal bodies at the place where they were found, but elsewhere".

District office press spokesman Robert Stangl: "The bodies were most likely taken and the skulls disposed of in this way." The Freising police are investigating in this context because of hunting poaching: "Who saw conspicuous vehicles or people in the above-mentioned area?

Urgent Warning

In this context, the lower hunting authority at the Freising district office warns against downplaying hunting poaching: “It is a criminal offense and will be prosecuted with all the consequences.

According to the Criminal Code, poaching can be punished with up to five years in prison in particularly serious cases.

Serious cases are therefore present, for example, in commercial or habitual hunting poaching.

If venison of unknown or dubious origin is offered, it should therefore not be bought.

Most poachers don't roam the hunting grounds or wait for prey on perches, but shoot from the car.

During this so-called “Pirelli stalk” the animals are killed and the carcasses are then packed straight into the trunk.”

appeal of the police

The Freising police appealed to hunters and citizens “to contact the police immediately if poaching is suspected and not to intervene themselves.

Under no circumstances should people put themselves in danger by carelessly addressing or provoking suspicious persons, who may have weapons with them.”
