Hunger and thirst: birds of prey now need our help!
Hunger and thirst: birds of prey now need our help!
In Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania there is currently a dramatic situation for the feathered residents of the regions. The bad mouse year and the ongoing drought make the birds of prey, storks and owls. Jens Krüger, animal rights activist from the Storch care farm Papendorf, reports on a worrying situation. On the 13,000 square meter site on Bundesstraße 104, current four tower falcons, a forest owl and a forest ear owl are being tapped up. These animals come from Western Pomerania, the Uckermark and the Mecklenburg Lake District and are not yet able to fly, such as the nordkurier reported.
The ungrateful weather means that there is a lack of feed. Krüger speaks of a "bad mouse year", which has a direct impact on the food supply for young people. Young birds in need of help who sit on the ground need support; Many of them are left by their parents. "Estlings that climb from branch to branch are fed by the parents and are not in the same emergency," continued Krüger.
The rescue measures
Fortunately, there is hope: a tower falcon that was saved by employees of the Löcknitz tourist information information can already fly and is about to leave. A stork from a nest in Wismar is also looked after in Papendorf and has good chances of being released into freedom soon. The nursing train also houses older buzzards, a screaming eagle and six sea eagles. But the fate of these animals remains uncertain, since Krüger negotiates with zoos that are already overloaded with the absorption of animals."I guess the number of birds in need only represents the tip of the iceberg", Krüger points out. He asks the population to become aware of young birds in need and to support them if necessary.
support from the community
More and more people in the region notice that it is important to take care of injured or needy animals. Organizations such as the German Falconal Order offer numerous information and regional contacts for the rescue of gifts, owls and other wild birds. There are many start -up stations in Germany that specialize in rehabilitation such birds and re -win them again in the event of cases.
A list of reception stations is provided at Wildvogelhilfe , where interested parties can find the nearest stations. In these facilities, the injured birds are treated and optimally prepared for a return to nature.
