Closed Continued protection of the buzzard (buteo buteo).

Closed on

To withdraw any plans to manage populations of the buzzard (buteo buteo) that have been proposed to ascertain the effect of the buzzard on introduced non-native species, and ensure that the buzzard continues to receive full protection under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.
To research fully and openly the true level of impact the buzzard population has upon introduced, non-native birds.
Should such research be deemed conclusive, to investigate methods of compensation for losses to Land Owners and Game Keepers in preference to any form of population control of the buzzard (buteo buteo).
