A reader writes in to bring attention to bird traps on the Mercadona upper-parking in Salobreña.

Has anybody seen the dove trap on the roof of Mercadona Salobreña, on the upper parking deck? The birds can enter only one way into the small cage, then they are trapped.

According to the staff of Mercadona, they catch the ‘dirty birds;’ I guess in order to kill them. This is not ok.

If there would not be so much trash and food packages left, there wouldn’t be the doves either.

This open display of animal cruelty shall not go unnoticed.

Anybody any idea how to help? Maybe, you can publish this with a picture in Seaside Gazette to rise awareness?

Thank you
