Very sad! Title: Re: Ireland: More Sea Eagles poisoned Post by: patsy6 on 05-Feb-13, 08:29:05 AM Oh, how very sad. :'( I have visited the Killarney National Park. It's a beautiful old growth forest, and I'm glad it is being preserved.

They have eluded me thus far, in spite of numerous tramps through the bracken. Of course they were probably 10 feet away... Yes, this is another sad result for these majestic birds. On one note, it is all over the media today, so perhaps... of course the fines are derisory, so until they really hand out some nasty punishments, people will continue to ply their evil trade.

Title: Re: Ireland: More Sea Eagles poisoned Post by: AlisonL on 05-Feb-13, 02:53:36 PM The persecution of raptors never seems to end. Sea eagles are such beautiful birds, and the fact that twelve of the birds released have already been found poisoned is sickening.
