If You Accidentally Break the Law, Are You a Criminal?

This article is about criminal intent and irrelevant to the story they cite about a rescued woodpecker. All states need Good Samaritan laws to protect wildlife rescuers against criminal prosecution under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. I'm not too sure this woodpecker rescuer meets the necessary criteria though - she took the bird shopping and never called a rehabber for advice.

On the other hand, there are these criminals who should have the book thrown at them!

4 Men Charged with Killing Hawks in Orangeburg County

Update: Dead hawks at Orangeburg plantation prompt federal charges. Evidently, this has happened before and by agents tasked to defend the hawks! Turns out they were killing hawks to protect quail hunting!
