This morning a CABS team reported two illegal bird callers used for hunting or trapping to the police. The devices imitated the calls of protected Oystercatchers and other waterbirds and were switched off and confiscated by the officers.
CABS said that the lures were found close to the lighthouse where angry bird trappers attacked a team [1] from BirdLife Malta yesterday evening.
On Monday CABS teams said that they found another large illegal bird trapping site close to Santa Lucija in Gozo.
The police were called and confiscated the clap net. Investigations to identify the poacher have been launched, said CABS
