The dangers of baling twine to raptors

[Fotografer]

This osprey was using baling twine to build his nest and became entangled in it. PLEASE, PLEASE do not leave baling twine laying out on the ground or wrapped around fence posts. IT IS TERRIBLY DANGEROUS TO BIRDS AND WILDLIFE!!!! </p>

<p>Any time you are out and you see any baling twine laying around or hanging off of a fence ~ PLEASE pick it up, cut it into small pieces, and dispose of it in a trash receptacle! Cutting it up is very important, as the birds will also take it out of landfills.</p>
