South Australia’s Ban on Bow and Crossbow Hunting
Wednesday Mar 06, 2024
Wednesday Mar 06, 2024
Bowhunting and Bowfishing to be banned by the end of 2024
Lisien Loan, Director of Conservation and Wildlife, updates on South Australia's commitment to ban bows and crossbows for hunting animals.
- The decision stemmed from community feedback and the Animal Welfare Act 1985 review.
- Originally proposed through amendments to the National Parks and Wildlife (Hunting) Regulations 2011, the ban now takes a comprehensive approach.
- The ban, expected to take effect in 2024, prohibits the use of bows and crossbows for hunting any animal in South Australia, with fines of up to $1,000 for violations.
- Despite the ban, recreational use of bows and crossbows, like target archery, remains unaffected.
- For further details and FAQs, visit the Department for Environment and Water's website.
- The ban affects various groups, including holders of Basic Hunting Permits, Aboriginal hunters, landholders dealing with crop or property damage, and bow fishers.
