You could argue that Larsens also help protect livestock, especially sheep (eye pecking of newborn lambs and attacking sheep in general), by keeping problematic species such as corvids in check. They are irreplaceable conservation tools, that is for sure. I would like to see videos like this given airtime on our mainstream media as part of the education process. Being a non-rural living person, I've had to learn the ways of gamekeepers and other land managers by educating myself on what they do for a living.
3:26 not sure if this is a joke or not. safer? did you test this on 100 birds activating the trap to see how many injuries and escapes or even deaths this trap has? and "this trap dosnt need any extra food for the bird to survive bcs your checking the trap every 24h". Cant you check every trap 24h? I like the cute baby bird at the end of the clip that most likly gona snap its head off this trap
