[Sg] - PAP Shanmugam: I will jail whoever tries to interfere with my bird traps to kill invasive species!

Im pleasantly surprised there are sinkies like that.
Well done.
I hope Shan comes down hard on them coz it can only backfire and embolden more sinkies of the likes.
 
We of course knew long ago where this country is headed.

The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”
 
I wonder if these same people go and disturb and sabo the hanging of humans in Changi?

Shanmugam noted that NParks has encountered interference with the traps by animal lovers on several occasions, including overturned cages, blocked trap entrances and deliberate noise-making to warn nearby crows.

In other cases, some animal lovers cut the cable ties of the traps, or cut the wires of the CCTV cameras before freeing the birds, he said.

Shanmugam said this is a serious matter as it hampers the efforts of NParks officers and wastes public resources, adding that he has asked authorities to "take a very firm approach" to such offences.

To this end, the police will investigate these cases, with a view to prosecuting and seeking deterrent sentences including custodial sentences, where appropriate.

While he acknowledged that there are animal lovers who feel strongly about culling or trapping of birds, Shanmugam said they should raise their concern with their MP instead of resorting to such actions.

Agree that crows are a pest - support culling of crow!
 
I hate birds. They shit on my head and body when I am under the tree taking shade. Cull all birds!
I used to find birds annoying as they often defecate on my car when left at open air carparks. Then bird droppings fell on my head and clothing on 3 separate occasions during the past 5 years, and I now find them a menace.
