£70.000 Pounds for 14 Peregrine eggs? they must have all been 18 Carat , I would think Its near on 70 Captive Bred Falcons to net that sort of money.

 

why would anyone in the right mind want to take Peregrine eggs when they are so readily available through captive breeding is beyond me. Also Can't see why falconers in Dubai would show any interest in this guy when their is so many bred in captivity around the world.

 

They're normally pretty strict with the legalities and paperwork as is DEFRA <Animal Health> and customs...

Just watched it on the news and have been sat there with a mate wondering about a few of the facts they quoted. I think the storey is a bit bendy and twisty, but someone has been made an example of for something thats for sure.

How do they get various wild Falcons to adopt the ones they hatched and put back in nests, this is what they showed themselves to be doing on the news. How does it work??
