I agree with all the comments made on this one,. I just heard on the news this morning, some low life has cut the legs off two parrots, and of coarse they had to be put down. For once words fail me. |

Question. I take it there is no 'international' bird organisation that could pressurise such issues? If not there should be.
Signed.
Nige | The RSPB with its Birdlife Partners in Cyprus have been exerting pressure + highlighting this for years, but a difficult struggle with such an endemic culture to fight.
I was in Cyprus a couple of years back during spring + didn't actually see any bird catching, but no doubt it is widespread. |
