ISLAMABAD: The Punjab Wildlife Department has collected Rs550,000 from hunters for illegal hunting in the last 30 days, but not without facing retaliation from huntsmen.
Out of 51 fines issued over the last month, 43 cases were settled amicably but the rest of the hunting parties decided to register first information reports (FIRs) against the staff of the department. In some cases, huntsmen who chose not to pay penalties for illegal hunting have challenged the department in courts.
