Leg Flagging scourge now in Tasmania

["Stephen Ambrose" <>]

There is a very good scientific review of the impacts on the use of
instrumentation on birds at the following University of Tasmania link:

UTAS Guidelines for Instrumentation of Birds (published by the Wildlife
Advisory Panel, University of Tasmania Animal Ethics Committee).
http://www.research.utas.edu.au/animal_ethics/docs/Guidelines%20for%20the%20
instrumentation%20of%20birds%20final.pdf

All animal research institutions and individual researchers in Australia are
obliged legally to conform to the guidelines set by their AEC. In my
experience, other AECs are just as thorough and concerned about animal
welfare as the one at UTAS.
