:02:03. > :02:08.be the apex predator, and kill them as humanely as possible. A rifle
:02:08. > :02:15.bullet is the way to do that. It causes as little disturbance to

:03:50. > :03:55.-- I spoke to Mimi Bekhechi. It is a really ineffective way of dealing
:03:55. > :03:58.with wildlife. It does not address the problem. More animals will move
:03:59. > :04:05.in to take the place of the ones who have been killed, and they will
:04:05. > :04:14.reproduce even more quickly. We need to look at humane ways of
:04:14. > :04:18.dealing with any conflict. We need to address the problem. But the
:04:18. > :04:27.deer are causing accidents, damaging crops and property. How
:04:27. > :04:31.would you manage the population to get rid of the numbers of deer?
:04:31. > :04:36.Successful population management programmes deal with things like
:04:36. > :04:41.Habitat modification, humane exclusion, like putting up electric
:04:41. > :04:46.fences or repellents in order to keep the animals are. As long as
:04:46. > :04:50.the area is hospitable, more animals will move in, and it will
:04:50. > :04:55.not solve the problem. Deer are involved in 42,000 accidents a year.

:05:02. > :05:07.Madden who was killed when his bicycle crash into Libya in August?
:05:07. > :05:12.I am so sorry for them. -- his bicycle crashed into a deer in
:05:12. > :05:18.August. I would want to see a situation
:05:18. > :05:21.where we do not see any more of these accidents. Scapegoating deer
:05:21. > :05:25.will not resolve the situation of accidents on the road. We will not
:05:25. > :05:32.see a reduction in the number of accidents if we do not address the
:05:32. > :05:36.problem. There was one stretch of road that saw culling brain
:05:36. > :05:43.operation, and accidents when from 50 in a year to none. Is that not
:05:43. > :05:48.evidence that it will cut down on the accident? If you do not address
:05:48. > :05:52.the environment, more animals will move them. You may see a drop in
:05:52. > :05:57.numbers initially, but as I said, as long as that area is hospitable,
:05:57. > :06:03.more animals will move in and the numbers will spike again. It is not
:06:03. > :06:07.a long-term solution. Long-term solutions look at you make
:06:07. > :06:12.repellents and putting up electric fences. This country used to be
:06:12. > :06:17.covered in warts. As we build more roads and encroach on the space of
:06:17. > :06:21.wildlife, we need to find humane solutions that allow us to live
:06:21. > :06:28.together. We will never achieve ecological harmony through the
:06:28. > :06:36.barrel of a gun. Very good to talk to you.

:07:47. > :07:52.when I first found out. I was in a state of shock. I went to bed and I
:07:52. > :07:55.woke up at 4 o'clock, and I was distraught. It's is thought thieves
:07:55. > :07:59.targeted it because it was in the shape of a heart, and it had made
:07:59. > :08:06.gold leaf. The local community cannot believe someone would steal
:08:06. > :08:09.a child's gravestone. It was very shocking to hear this had happened.
:08:09. > :08:13.When a family has been bereaved, you cannot believe anybody would do
:08:13. > :08:17.something to give them more pain. It is not the first time a
:08:17. > :08:21.graveyard has been targeted by vandals. A few years ago Withernsea,
:08:21. > :08:25.hundreds of headstones and ornaments were damaged, and there
:08:25. > :08:29.was a similar incident in Scunthorpe, where maybe 150
:08:29. > :08:36.headstones where tack. In May, several momentos went missing from
:08:36. > :08:39.graves in Hull. Crimes like this are usually extremely difficult to
:08:40. > :08:44.investigate, so the police are appealing to the local community to
:08:44. > :08:52.help them solve this. Michelle and her family just want whoever took
:08:52. > :08:58.this to give it back. It is sentimental. It is my special place.
:08:58. > :09:03.Michelle Holness ending that report. The Foreign Office has confirmed
:09:03. > :09:08.that a pilot from Hull has been killed in an air crash in southern

:09:28. > :09:32.Martin Gresswell was employed by the plane company Moremi Air, for
