It is crucial to understand that what ornithologists find in the field is only the tip of the iceberg of this problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Impunity fuels the crisis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is devastating that after several decades of ever-present poisoning of wild animals, the competent Ministry of Environmental Protection still does not have an action plan on how to prevent wildlife poisoning, nor protocols on how to react properly in the field, so you can clearly see the confusion in the work of field inspections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cIn Serbia, over the past 20 years, more than 3,000 birds have died from poisoning, and no one has ever been punished for it. These numbers show that poisoning is an established practice, and the responsible institutions not only fail to bring cases to court but often do not inform the public about these issues that concern not only the environment but also the health and safety of the population. The impunity for these crimes sends a clear message that crime is acceptable,\u201d stated Slobodan Markovi\u0107 from the Society for the Protection and Study of Birds of Serbia.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Urgent action is needed to protect Serbia\u2019s wildlife<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the severity of the situation, immediate and effective measures are needed to combat this crisis. The survival of raptors is closely tied to the health of Serbia\u2019s ecosystems, agricultural practices, and even public well-being. As raptors are at the top of the food chain, these birds play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance, and their loss signals deeper environmental issues that must be addressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While much remains to be done, recent developments show some progress. Authorities in Serbia have<a href=\"https:\/\/balkandetoxlife.eu\/2025\/02\/27\/major-arrest-in-serbia-exposes-black-market-pesticide-trade-threatening-balkan-wildlife\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> recently made a huge arrest involving the illegal pesticide trade<\/a>, a significant step toward curbing the black market that fuels wildlife poisoning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the key initiatives working to combat wildlife poisoning in Serbia and the broader Balkan region is the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.balkandetoxlife.eu\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BalkanDetox LIFE<\/a> project. This international effort aims to raise awareness and improve capacities to tackle illegal poisoning across seven Balkan countries.
