Charsred- with havina taken a -protected bird and with cruelty to animals. a market gardener of Mansrere pleaded not guilty in the Onehunga Police Court. The evidence of the police showed that on July 21st the defendant had tethered a seagull to a stake in his garden. On the bird's breast was a severe wound, as if it had been penetrated by a bullet from an airgun. It was unable to fly and had to be destroyed. A schoolgirl said she released the seagull, which she took to her mother, who informed the police. The defendant said he was annoyed by a flock of seagulls. He tried to scare them away, as they were destroying his seeds, and he caught the bird in question. He noticed that it was unable to fly, bat saw no wound on it. He admitted tethering it by one leg to a stake, intending to release it next morning. The Justices imposed a fine of £5 and costs on the charge of taking a protected bird, .and 30b and costs for cruelty.
