| Re: Ethical dilemma Grant,
I think you'll find the bird of pray centre will be displaying captive bred birds.
If they do have an injurd wild bird in thieir premises then it should not be on display and kept away from the public as this will only cause it distress.
To keep any uk species of bird of prey you need a certificate called an article 10 which outlines the history of the bird, ring number owners history etc. If a bird is injured and cannot be re-released then it cannot be put on public display and mainley used for breeding. Again an article 10 has to be issued from DEFRA.
