| dc.description | This Irish Wildlife Manual describes the findings of a collaborative approach between the National
Parks & Wildlife Service (NPWS), the Veterinary Laboratory Service and State Laboratory, known as
the RAPTOR (Recording and Addressing Persecution and Threats to Our Raptors) protocol. This
collaboration was developed in 2011 on the back of an EU ‘Pilot Case’ relating to the absence of a formal
investigation protocol for bird of prey injury and mortality in Ireland. With a recent (1 January 2020)
handover in responsibility for the RAPTOR protocol within NPWS, it was felt timely to review the cases
to date (up to 31 December 2019). The RAPTOR protocol entails a significant amount of effort between
the three Government Departments, from collecting and handling carcasses, injured birds and evidence,
to X-rays, Post-Mortem examinations, DNA sampling, toxicological testing and follow-up
investigations, data analysis, interpretation and reporting. A number of training events and on-going
mentoring has been delivered to personnel involved. | en |
