Helicopter police. But yes they wouldnt be bothered. IM pretty sure farmers can get handguns for pest destruction just it's uncommon and hard to get, easier to get a & b licence then just get a reminton 7600 or something. I think in northern territory some tour guides carry 45s to shoot buffalo.

btw can you shoot protectored animals if they are injured. I was watching this bush show this morning and this guy found some bird like a cockatoo and it had a broken wing. He was messing around with it and cut off its broken infected wing and was taking it to a vet. IMO for all the messing around it would be human to shoot it instead of putting it in a zoo where it cant fly.

I suppose a vet might get a ccw if they need to stop horse tranquilizers getting stolen

actually, pistols come in handy when disposing of pigs off the back of a motorbike.generally i prefer a knife and a couple of dogs but ive been on a couple of stations that have huge pig problems and motorbikes and pistols are the quickest way to knock them off.

I reckon your doctor needs a ccw.
