Most land in Scotland is owned by large estate owners (think castles and thousands of acres).
We have extremely strict gun control and hunting is usually limited to employees of the estates or visitors who have paid a hefty fee to hunt on the estate.
Hunting here is much more controlled and limited than it is in North America or elsewhere.

- russholmes 6y agoBow hunting is illegal in the UK. Permitted firearms and ammunition are also regulated on animal cruelty grounds. http://www.thedeerinitiative.co.uk/uploads/guides/90.pdf http://www.thedeerinitiative.co.uk/uploads/guides/90.pdf
