Four buzzards became the victims of illegal poisoning at Eaglesfield, Dumfries & Galloway, in March 2008. Police did not appeal for information until August 2008. The reason for the delayed publicity is unknown, but it is hard to expect anyone to come forward with information for the police 5 months after the crime was committed.
