Synopsis:
“Some
probably
don’t
known it, but in Portugal the capture of wild
birds, non-game species,
for captivity or consumption is an illegal practice.
In a recent study, it was concluded that Goldfinches,
Chaffinch and Redpolls are
the most sold Passeriformes
on the Internet as pets and
they are also the ones that
end in the menus of restaurants
most
frequently.
People who capture this kind
of birds are often unaware
of the law, and those acting
consciously, think that their
actions will go unpunished.
The law requires the imposition of fines in cases of
capture and killing or illegal
captivity of birds.”
