Pielachtaler Waidmann Friedrich Hardegg is deeply shocked! Because a trusting capitalist was murdered in his nature reserve. Was the animal killed illegally? The hunters reject the accusations.
“Our Franzi was lured to my area by a small farmer, that is, his feeding ground, ambushed him there and then shot him in complete darkness using modern but forbidden technology,” Friedrich Hardegg complains indignantly.
Latest photos of “Franzi” posted
The hunter now very much misses ‘his most beloved and trusted deer in the nature resort’, which he once called ‘Franzi’. The respected and visibly affected landowner posted the last photos of his protégé on Facebook. It shows the proud antler bearer – a so-called odd 16-ender – roaring on the autumn meadow in Schwarzenbach an der Pielach.
Now a report has been filed
“It has nothing to do with hunting anymore,” said Hardegg, who reported the shooting to police just a few meters from his territory. The affected local hunters deny the allegations. “Franzi” was not ambushed while feeding, and the deer was not shot in the dark using night vision goggles or similar technology. A hunting conflict arises in the picturesque Pielachtal.
