beast 1,884 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 maybe 20 years ago a lotm of parrots were being stolen, and they were worth big money too. this has certainly dropped nowadays as people have got better at breeding them, so they are more cheaply and reaily available, although the rarer stuff like hyacinth macaws are still targeted i believe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Showed some of the ways the Dutch have got over the problems of flooding, and how the Somerset levels could be helped with some of their ideas, not sure it'll work though, it involves farmers and the government working together, unlikely in this country I'd say lol.... Oh and it showed the RSPCA, wildlife police ( or whatever they call themselves) and estate managers trying to think of more shit to throw at dog men...
