Closing a Century-Old Bird Sanctuary | Liverpool News

Sefton Council is shutting down an 87-year-old bird sanctuary next March, citing outdated facilities and soaring maintenance costs — a move backed by PETA and Born Free Foundation. Experts warn the birds’ complex social needs can’t be met in confinement, while the council vows no euthanasia, only rehoming to specialized care centers. Though some locals protest, officials stress the animals’ welfare remains top priority, and the site will soon transform into a native wildlife haven — inviting community help to build a brighter future for nature.
