The end of the story just cracks me up:
>It is unclear why the birds have started attacking so many livestock. Some think it is down to a change in the law - farmers now have to collect dead any livestock, which the ravens would normally feed on.
>But many farmers disagree. Jim Climie believes it is because the bird populations that are out of control.
>"They've developed a taste for it, they're very aggressive and are the mobsters of the bird world," he said, adding: "They've been protected for too long.
>"We must control their numbers because it's not sustainable. I've already heard of one farmer who's considering giving up."
I can almost picture him speaking in The Sea Captian's voice. "Arrrrrr, the ravens are upon us."
