Recreational duck hunting season will go ahead in the southern Australian state of Victoria despite repeated calls for it to be banned.
Victoria’s Game Management Authority (GMA) confirmed on Feb. 24 the 2023 duck hunting season arrangements.
The 2023 duck hunting season will be from April 26 to May 30, with a limit of four birds a day and a time restriction to only hunt ducks between the hours of 8 a.m. and 30 minutes after sunset each day.
Hunters will also be prohibited from hunting the protected Blue-winged Shoveler, and Hardhead species, as both were recently listed as threatened under the Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988….
