I have been volunteering for the RSPB and am shocked to hear about the continued illegal killing of birds of prey even in these enlightened times. They are being shot, trapped and poisoned in ways that put other wildlife and even pets at risk. I have signed the RSPB pledge to support their efforts to stop this cruel and unnecessary killing of these magnificent birds.

I would willingly sign the petition[or Pledge as the RSPB call it] ---but i don't know[or like] why they want all the personal info.I suspect it's related to getting more members or donations ---I am a member of the RSPB by the way.

I have signed the pledge though I don't want to support the RSPB, but since signing had phone calls trying to recuit as a member, and least get 3 emails a week. Still i would sign the pledge again.

I thought that would happen.---I think most on here would agree with the pledge but it smells a little of a cynical marketing ploy to get more members.
