Ian Thomson is the head of RSPB Scotlands Investigations team investigating wildlife crime against birds. This is no easy task given the on going battles with some land uses in Scotland and the persecution of several raptor species.

An hour probably isn't long enough to discuss this issue but it was great to get an insight from someone who is on the very front line of raptor persecution.
