Still Waters Posted March 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Britain's farmers must try to shoo away birds before they can be shot for damaging crops, according to new plans from the Government's wildlife advisers. And anyone breaking the rules could face prosecution, with a maximum six months in jail or a £5,000 fine. http://www.dailymail...ide-groups.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashotep Posted March 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Knowing how many crows we have around here I don't see it as economically feasible to shoot at them. Bullets are expensive, a sound cannon or a old fashion scare crow might work better and be less costly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keninsc Posted March 11, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Do crows really cause that much crop damage in the UK? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruthSeekingSoul Posted March 11, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 11, 2014 So serious? ;o The UK goverment are probably afraid that those crows will end up extinct like those dinosaurs so that's why they decide to establish this rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6.6.6 Posted March 14, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Crows pose a huge danger to newborn animals in the uk, young lambs will often have their eyes pecked out before they can stand, I cant see carion having much effect on crops though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
