                                       STOAT TRAP THEFTS

17/2/2017

 
Picture
3 specially designed traps have been stolen at different times during the past few months. The thefts are bad news for the many supporters of the Trail who welcome efforts to preserve birds and wildlife, including some endangered species. 

But above all the thefts are a gratuitous insult to the small number of volunteers who have spent hundreds of hours monitoring, baiting and resetting the traps on a regular basis.

The control program has contributed to an increase in the birdlife in the area. A number of these birds nest at, or just above, ground level and their chicks are easy prey.”
​
Could anyone with knowledge of anything that might relate to the thefts of these traps please contact Gary Fowler ph 07 864 7839 (for the Trust).
