The Champions of the Flyway is dedicated to preventing the illegal killing of migratory birds on the Africa-Eurasian Flyway. In August 2015, the shocking extent of the slaughter around the Mediterranean was revealed by a study “The Killing” published by BirdLife International. Around 25 million birds, mainly songbirds, are killed illegally there by shooters and trappers every year! Download a copy of this definitive report here.

The Dutch Knighs are one of the supporting teams, raising awerness to these slaughter but also trying to raise money for the cause.
