MAN AS AN ENEMY OF BIRDS 173 



The small boy who shoots birds and collects eggs 

 must be reached through the schools, and with the 

 introduction of nature-study into so many schools 

 the value and protection of bird life are now being 

 widely taught. 



The problem presented by the shooting of song- 

 birds by foreigners has been solved by several States 

 by prohibiting aliens from hunting or from owning 

 or possessing guns.
