Surveillance Operation Stepped Up In Crackdown On Yorkshire Raptor Crime

BIRDS OF PREY

NORTH YORKSHIRE POLICE have pledged to carry out random surveillance checks on known raptor persecution hot-spots, as part of a new initiative to reduce illegal attacks on birds of prey.

Operation Owl launched on February 17 and is a joint initiative by North Yorkshire Police, the RSPB and RSPCA, together with the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks, to tackle illegal killing of raptors in the county.

The operation will run for the next year after the police force stated that North Yorkshire has more confirmed incidents of raptor persecution than any other county in England. Of the 83 confirmed incidents in 2016, 20 occurred in North Yorkshire.
