Report an illegal hunting or trapping activity
ALL HUNTING and TRAPPING is illegal at the moment since the spring hunting season for 2008 is going to remain closed.
So, when you witness illegal hunting or trapping, immediately call the A.L.E. on 22942161/2/3 (Monday to Saturday, between 8am to 5.30pm, Saturday until 2 pm).
You can call the Police Command Centre on 21224001 at any time.
It is important to call immediately after you witness the illegal activity. Before you call make sure that you have most of the information needed by the police:
Exact location of incident or land mark;
Details of incident (bird-trapping, hunting);
Number of persons involved;
Details of appearance (colour of clothes, long or short trousers etc.);
Car registration number (if applicable);
Take note of where the illegally hunted bird is kept (in the car, in the hide, behind a tree, given to a third party etc.);
Recall time and date of incident.
Also keep a record of the time and date of your report to the police and ask for the badge number of the policeman/woman you are speaking to. Keep a record of this and make reference to this badge number when you follow up with another call a few days later to see what the outcome was.
