An injured buzzard has been rescued on Guernsey – a veterinary x-ray showed it had been shot through the right shoulder with an air rifle.
The buzzard is now being treated in an intensive care unit at a wildlife hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.
Interestingly, according to the BBC, the police have been informed but are ‘not currently investigating’!
Guernsey SPCA are nevertheless appealing for information. Tel: 01481-257261.

“Not currently investigating”..perhaps they know who did it and that person is a juvenile?…which reminds me what is the state of play over law changes and air weapons in Scotland?…
