Let me just say that 15years is not enough!
Zim man gets 15 years for poisoning elephants | News24.
Good news! I was down in Gzira last week and had a meeting with one of the head people of Birdlife Malta. I am now reading and getting myself updated with the newest in the EU law and Birds Directive. Hopefully I can do a good job in helping the thousands of birds having to pass Malta each year without getting shot!. You see, Malta is pretty much the last country for so many birds and endangered species to pass on their way to Africa. As far as I have learned is that Malta is avoiding and keeps on slipping through the cracks and is breaking the law. the link below is what everybody can read about, and if you keep yourself updated about what birds actually gets shot, you can easily see that this is just the tip of the iceberg!
