Excerpt from The Balance of Nature and Modern Conditions of Cultivation: A Practical Manual of Animal Foes and Friends for the Country Gentleman, the Farmer, the Forester, the Gardener, and the Sportsman
The outcome of lover of nature agitation was the passing of the Wild Birds' Protection Acts, 1869 (32 and 33 Vict. Cap. XVII), 1872 (35 and 36 Vict. Cap. LXXVIII), and 1876, the latter having regard chie?y to birds forming important articles of food and commerce, while the two former embraced British birds under purely local names, others under different names for the same birds as if they belonged to different birds, while there are also omissions implying compilation by persons not well acquainted with the subjects. These matters, how ever, were subsequently amended, and power was given to County Councils for modification of such measures as related to their respective counties or districts.
