    The disregard for EU regulations is troubling, as it shows a lack of commitment to bird protection and conservation.

      The trapping of wild birds is not only cruel but also threatens their populations and biodiversity. It is important for all EU member states to adhere to these rules in order to protect our natural environment and ensure the conservation of these species. If these accusations are true, France should be held accountable and take immediate action to rectify the situation.

                Every aspect of the ecosystem needs to be protected so France should up their game on protecting these creatures

                  @edwin_wangombe Every thing in nature has its role, so when we don't protect these birds what will play their role if they are all gone.

                      Violations of such rules are not only detrimental to the environment but also reflect poorly on France's dedication to wildlife protection.
