And on their way south, they reach the killing fields of northern Serbia ( Newsweek on poaching in the Balkans ). And that flight is illegal because EU legislation does not allow export of game meat from Serbia to EU. In all European Union countries to the north and east of Serbia (except Romania), Turtle Doves are strictly protected.

But no one who has ever cared for another creature – be it bird, animal, or human – can comprehend, much less cope with, this kind of brutal, pointless killing. Emboldened by the averted gazes, the excuses by the adults in their lives, the legal bargains and wrist slaps, they set their sights on increasingly bigger game.

They are not necessarily the biggest African animals, but represented those that were considered a real hunter’s worthy prey or “game” – the African Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Black Rhinoceros, Leopard and king of the jungle, the Lion (which of course doesn’t inhabit jungle but savanna!). They live for up to 100 years.

After scrolling through piles of furious emails regarding a recent blog about Rip Van Winkle’s Crow Killing Contest , it seemed to me that all of us needed Dr. Phil.

What could motivate gunmen (I cannot call them hunters) in two states to deliberately kill North America’s tallest and most critically endangered bird? That’s what you do with other game, right? Those who harvest are unfortunately myopic, seeing only the instant gratification of the meal or the kill. I think not!
