The interactive Raptor Persecution Map Hub was updated. Now covering 12 years of confirmed raptor persecution incidents, it shows more clearly than ever where the UK blackspots are. It helped show that 2018 was the worst year in England in a decade.

The update is that it may have hit a car on the bridge according to another witness. It’s def been shot, just not confirmed how recently. I’m sure more from RSPB later. Please keep a look out for these special birds and their safety.

All birds of prey are protected by law. Their illegal killing has been an offence since 1954, however, it continues to this day through shooting, trapping, poisoning, nest destruction and disturbance. Operation Owl seeks to stop this operationowl.com/ #WorldWildlifeDay

So, it's 1st March & illegal hedge cutting already underway - this is N33, County Louth between Ardee & M1 J14. No visibility issues so health & safety clause can't be used. Driver also on phone while driving/cutting @louthcoco @npwsBioData @gardainfo @josephamadigan @DeptAHG

David is a #TopBloke Veterinary Surgeon & helps us in #WildlifeCrime & #AnimalWelfare prosecution cases, has x rayed & examined deceased birds for us to rule out criminal acts and euthanised suffering animals who cannot be saved. Sounds an interesting conference @_BCT_

Fascinating talk from David Holah at #BatCareConf talking about bat rehabilitation from a vet’s perspective. New technologies such as K-laser treatment has good potential for repairing tears in the wing membrane. @_BCT_
