Taking to social media, the Federation for Hunting and Conservation (FKNK) revealed massive heaps of trash left in the Mizieb Hunting Reserve.

‘This is a clear indication of the disrespect towards the environment of our islands, from individuals who continue to ruin their ecosystems.’

The FKNK went on to urge anyone with any information about the case to communicate either with them or the authorities to stop this from happening again.
