We see many cases of victims from gunshot, poisoning and steel jaw trap. Some are directly aimed at birds of prey from those unaware of the importance of biodiversity and the benefits of predators in our environment as a whole (such as pest control). Others may suffer from secondary poisoning (lead, chemical, baited carcass) and victims of steel jaw traps (although illegal are still being used).
