It's terrible this, so many birds of prey being killed to help encourage the population of game birds.
As a farmer I see these Gamebirds as a invasive species.
They like a plague in certain areas
Round where I used to live the roadside was covered with dead game birds. Pheasant smashed my window once when flying across a road. Mad how many are released.
Ive watched people at the shootings. No one seems to be enjoying themselves, it’s just a way of maintained and gaining contacts.
Gameskeepers are a law into themselves. The amount of game birds killed by raptors would be insignificant given the volumes released.

They really are.
When there was housing orders where I lived due to bird flu, where all poultry had to be put inside or covered with nets.
Meanwhile My neighbour who uses their land for shoots and breeds pheasants was realeasing hundreds of game birds into the local area, while my small flock of chickens and ducks had to be housed.

Not sure to be honest but there seems to be talk about an agency that was disbanded last year called the Valencia Emergency Unit which I’m guessing was supposed to fill that role. No idea how big it was or how much assistance it would have offered here though. Over a 1000 troops have been sent in to help with search and rescue.

Messing with biodiversity for the pleasure of killing, truly horrible actions.
