Man fined for drowning squirrel

[Sam Thompson]

Sympathetic predator control alongside habitat management will always help our once common birds.

 

Take a look at a well-keepered grouse moor compared to one run by the RSPB.

 

When the RSPB trap mink to protect the bitten its called conservation management.

 

when a gamekeeper traps stoats to protect ground nesting birds its called unessassary killing of poor little creatures that were destined for a leading role in the next disney production:thumbup:

 

 

The RSPB turns the public against "evil" gamekeepers/landowners/farmers, and yet has people shooting crows, foxes & Red, Roe, Fallow and Muntjac on the very nature reserves it verbally attacks thoose actions!

Ive seen this report before. Im just not sure that anything will ever really be achieved with Natural England at the helm, there bureaucracy and form filling tends to put land manages and owners off, this along with government cut backs may well see a workable idea shelved:thumbdown:

 

Never a truer word said. But at least if its out there and in the public eye there is more chance of things moving forward. I would like to see more higher level environmental stewardship by farmers. Would go a long way.
