[hawked again]

The news papers and TV news say they killed 200 lambs on the West of Scotland in 2008.

all of us in dearer meat raising costs , do R.S.P.B do risk assessments and consultations ???? thought the Scottish farmers didn't want these back ???????

[Guest evilscotsman]

Im 100% sure there was one of those flying past me towards the wemyss it was the "fingers" at the ends of the wings that i noticed it might have been another type of BOP but it sure looked the same

[VAGIN]

Maybe the other way to look at it they may take over smaller BOPs territory and scare them off and cause confusion Its jus a thought??????

[gulkie]

surely the farmers will fight in our corner now :emoticon-0138-thinking:

STV news tonight. Minister's geese attacked by one of these birds in Fife. Ripped the minister's back when he went to help the goose.

 

RSPB said that they will give the man advice on how to protect his birds in the future in case the eagle comes back when it is re-released.

[billt]

And here, This RSPB are a law unto themselves

[just ask me]

its only a matter of time till its a child

[geordie1234]

RSPB Scotland said the attack was "regrettable". A spokesman added: "Sea eagles only attack humans if they feel threatened."

 

 

That is what the RSPB said ^

 

Animals like this should be destroyed just like if a alligator in florida attacks it gets shot the same with sharks these should be no different only *expletive removed* eejits would release animals like this into the wild total idiots

[Guest jim2123]

rspb will give the minister advice on how to protect his birds what about us and women and CHILDREN mps should be held responsable lobby them now before a child is hurt or WORSE

[Guest IB]

I've merged 'Sea Eagles Attack Cleryman' thread into this. Some members were posting on that to this thread. It was also one of the newly released birds that was involved in the attack. So both threads are very much related: one about an irresponsible act, and the other about a direct consequence of that act.

[Guest Owen]

I know I might seem cynical but the more this sort of thing happens the better it is. The Public are the only hope we have to put pressure on the RSPB. Judging from the interview with the RSPB guy, they will give us all the ammunition we need. I am amazed that the Farmers have been prevented from shooting these evil things because I can tell you that if it were your pet dog that attacked the sheep or even frightened them the Farmer would have the right to shoot it on the spot.

I sometimes wonder what kind if idiots we elect to represent us because things that really matter to us are ignored.

[just ask me]

another problem maybe these birds are hand fed and when they get hungry and they have no fear of humans i dont believe a wild bred bird would attack a human jmo
