Endangering Wildlife.

We have received reports of children believed to be  around 10 or 11 years old,using a catapult to fire stones at wildlife  in the Fegg Hayes area.

This behaviour is completely unacceptable and causes  unnecessary harm and distress to local wildlife as well as concern among residents who have witnessed these incidents.

We ask parents, guardians and members of the community to speak with young people about the seriousness of this behaviour and to report any further incidents to us on 101.

If you have further information please feel free to reply to this alert.
