Hunting in Madeira: Tours Re-Scheduling 2012


Hunting in Madeira: Tours Re-Scheduling 2012

Every year in Madeira people hunt 4 species of birds and rabbits. This
recreational activity exists between September and December in areas
where we run our birdwatching tours.

This year the allowed species to hunt are: Rock Pigeon Columba livia,
Red-legged Partridge Alectoris rufa, Common Quail Coturnix coturnix,
Eurasian Woodcock Scolopax rusticola and European Rabbit Oryctolagus
cuniculus.

In what regards to the birding tours during the hunting season, we
avoid running tours on Sundays, Thursdays and public holidays.
Schedules have been adapted prior to bookings.
