The media world.

More than 30 years ago, there were many more woodcock than today, and few specialized media on the  woodcock, for some time now, the situation is reversed, less  woodcock and a lot of media.

Indeed, the specialized press has influenced the behavior of a certain number of young and old hunters, failing to really inform about the management of hunting in general. This press presenting itself as a defender of the woodcock, participates a lot in the dreams of many hunters in search of natural game, represented by the rabbit and the partridge. A hope for young small game hunters, to whom he  Only the woodcock remains, or almost, in natural game, apart from waterfowl in my region.

Many  articles in the specialized press  presents the woodcock as an exciting game, all of us think so too  . But the consequences have sparked enthusiasm for this hunt for dog lovers and strong emotions. It is true that many hunters have come to know this bird in the press.

The craze for this hunt also has negative consequences on the fact that many of us hunt woodcock.  

We would have preferred that the press in general shamelessly defend and inform about the situation of the woodcock. This is not their concern it seems, the behavior of many hunters does not make the headlines, and yet these behaviors are not worthy of a responsible hunter, they will understand me, she would have interests of a completely different nature?  

For a long time this press is no longer in the defense of Scolopax Rusticola  , in any case, we were entitled to think it, the woodcock is average like any other to continue to  maintain a lucrative environment. Moreover, for at least 20 years the subjects present in this press, no longer represent any interest or very little for the woodcock. We can hardly defend this bird and make available the means to take the maximum. Unfortunately, it is also echoed by institutions, fortunately, certain actors, starting with a certain number of hunters.  are no longer in tune.
