REWARD $5,000.
Some of you law abiding ethical hunters may be able to help.
A licensed Master Falconer, Kitty Carroll, was in Hammond for a Renaissance Fair. During a demonstration flight, her 13 year old trained Barbary falcon flew out of sight over some buildings.
A long search was conducted using telemetry, and ultimately the falcon's body was found behind a mobile home at the end of a dead end street near Loranger. The falcon had been shot, his feet had been cut off and his equipment had been removed and tossed to the side in a pile.
Please keep your ears open for any information you may hear about this. You may hear someone bragging and showing off his 'souvenir' of falcon's feet.
There is a $5,000 reward offered for the arrest & conviction of the person(s) involved in this federal crime. More information and contact info can be found at:
