Re: Help Save Ringneck Parakeets from being culled UK

Its one of the those problems that is hard to solve.
If we leave them and they are not native they will be putting native birds at risk by using resources up.
If we try to cull them it will cause an outrage with people who see the birds as pretty and cute.
Its another problem like the squirrel, they will be persecuted because they are not native but people like them.
