The persecution of our raptors continues for the benefit of a minority who enjoy the blood sport that is grouse shooting - we applaud RaptorPersecution for their continued work shining a light on these senseless and heinous crimes against the majestic birds of prey we have here in the UK.


Derbyshire Rural Crime Team is investigating after two birds of prey were found dead in the Ault Hucknall area of Chesterfield.


A Kestrel and a Buzzard were found on Monday 23 March. Initial investigations lead us to believe they have been poisoned rather than shot.


The birds have been recovered and an investigation launched.
