Poachers Are Killing Thousands of Rare Birds... And Getting Away With It

Legal loopholes are giving poachers permission to hunt protected birds. Sign today to stop the mass slaughter! Sign Now Dear friends, Thousands of birds make a migratory trek between Europe and Africa each year. And right now, Malta has become a deadly sinkhole in their path. Every year, hundreds of thousands of birds' lives are cut short by poachers as they fly over the country. Right now, more than 200,000 birds are killed annually. And those are only the deaths that we know about. Unfortunately, though many of these birds are protected elsewhere in the world, poachers in Malta are using legal loopholes to continue hunting these animals, even though they belong to extremely rare and vulnerable species. We can't let hunters and poachers in Malta continue to avoid EU law by exploiting these dangerous loopholes. Sign the petition today calling for an end to the mass slaughter of migratory birds now! Thank you,   Ellen B. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Legally protecting vulnerable bird populations in some countries but not others is an open door for poachers to kill hundreds of thousands of birds. Sign the petition today and demand these devastating loopholes are closed for good!
