There's nothing here in Thailand to hunt mate. The only hunting is usually done after dark in the bars. I suggest that if you're looking to use firearms for hunting, you're better off back in Oz.

Petesear Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Yea, you should have been here years ago, when the big brave hunters of yester-year came over to Asia and shot or trapped anything and everything.. Gawd bless 'um... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowspole Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Pig hunting definitely takes place in the provinces north of Phuket. Only people I know have done it are high-ranking police, military and their politician cronies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuky Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 are there Deer in Australia? I lived there for 20 years and never knew that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penzman Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 A lot of species that used to be hunted here have been wiped out, forever... Leave the hunting aside and enjoy fishing a few monsters, both fresh and seawater water fishing are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasi Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 From what I've heard thailand has a problem with poachers and I have yet to hear of any kind of game management other than what you find in the bars. Apparently this forum is populated by a quite a few "tree huggers" hence the rather negative reaction to your question. If you're a fisherman there is some interesting action out there to be had For the premier hunting adventures South Africa and Alaska are the places to go.

smacko Posted February 11, 2005 Author Share Posted February 11, 2005 i'm not going on a hunting trip, just thought i'd ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n7zrd Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 The sport of shooting is nill, clay pigeons in BKK and a few other ranges around if you want to stay in step. Hunting?? well I don't think its quite like Aust. or US where you apply, license and spend a weekend out. (Too bad) However if your really want to hunt head north to the mountains, visit a village and go out with the boys for a day of hunting snake, small rodants and such and then in the evening you can sit with lao kow and enjoy the barbeque!

I sometimes go with my friends dad. He lives in Bkk but has a summer place in Kanchanaburi province and we go hunting in the mountains there. You will be mostly hunting birds, as most of the other crap they hunt you wouldnt want to eat. To legally own a firearm here is very difficult for farang. To get the permits you would have to know someone very high up or show some real need for it. Most guns here dont have permits though because people bought them before the laws came into effect. Hope his helps, cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuchok Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 I have heard that hunting Deer is highly illegal, as they are owned by HRH? As for pigs, if you use anything other than a couple of dogs and a knife/pig stick, then you are a big girls blouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrdome Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 smacko, if you think they just let farangs come here and own loaded firearms in this country you got some learning to do. Btw, up to you to kill (even if it's only animals) if you can deal with the karmic consequences. Not preaching, just stating the obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
