Obviously, but it would still upset me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packham , rspca anybody looking for free publicity over a disappearing eagle . The last one i heard was pronounced dead as the transmitter stopped and then it turned up ? 14 hours ago, London Best said: I do not condone any such killing in the U.K., but you might feel differently if you witnessed an eagle carrying off your favourite Jack Russel as did an acquaintance of mine in South Africa.. Isnt that a problem on the west coast released Sea eagles are killing lambs ? and the government are paying out to the farmers the only discrepancy is the amount they are blamed on killing ?.

I would be miffed if I had lambs and they were being taken, but seeing your dog being carried off is another level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of lambs there taking is nearly bankrupting some farms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a cracking fight here today. A kite having a go at a buzzard trying to avoid being killed. It was epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
