The below report from a nearby Neighbourhood Watch member goes hand in hand with the erection of a number of signs in the area of Cucador Norte and Los Llanos del Peral.
As Springtime arrives the owners of land who have rights to the game on that land and are protective of them. In some areas they have erected warning signs but obviously, from the report below, others act in a criminal way. If you walk your dogs in the countryside be aware of this
A member of NHW met a Spanish friend. The gist of what he understood from him is that his dog is poorly and two dogs in Vincente/El Chopo have died as a result of eating meat laced with insecticide when on the rambla between Los Garcias and Los Requenas.
He also said that the area above the rambla, behind Los Carrascos, which is a popular spot for many dogs, is likely to also have received similar treatment.
The 'hunters' are the culprits and are protecting the nests where their future quarry (Partridge and similar ground nesting birds) are currently being raised.
The clumps of grass on the edge of the rambla and even in the middle of the rambla where we are all likely to be walking, is currently very tall and offers good cover for a lump of meat.
So, the message is; keep dogs on leads, perhaps use muzzles, and be watchful when your dogs are sniffing in a spot where a clump of meat could be hidden.
