bruno22rf Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 High time the law was changed, proven cases of Raptor killings should carry a £5000 (per bird) mandatory fine and a lifetime ban on gun ownership if such a weapon was used.

Down South Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 👍. I’ve just read on a GWCT bulletin that a peregrine falcon has been found in a pole trap, police are involved. What is going on in these people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they have no fear, as they've been circumcised and consequently won't get lashed with a wet bootlace 🙄😇😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scolopax Posted December 1, 2023 Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 Slap the Sparrowhawk and common buzzard on the general license. Issue licenses to kill Goshawk and Hen Harrier when needed to protect black grouse and red grouse. Then it would not be illegal, simples…..
