We are Painted Buntings,
Often victims of a horrible crime
We are caught and then sold on the black market
Which contributes to our population decline.
Note: As described in the linked article, "If you come across an illegal trap or a caged bunting, call or text the commission’s Wildlife Alert Hotline at (888) 404-3922 (FWCC), or send an email to Tip@MyFWC.com."
