Killing raptors (hawks) for self defense of your animals should be an exception to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act
If I had a pup and a hawk swooped in and tried to take them, I would be strongly inclined to wring its neck out. This is under the presumption: 1: the pup is being supervised and the bird still attacks, and 2: being unaware of hawks in the area to begin with. If you have a small dog and are aware of hawks in the area, you should 100% have them on a leash while they are in the backyard, with close supervision. However, I don't care if you're the King of fucking Mars, if my dog is in danger I should be able to protect it without fear of $10,000 fines and Federal Prison. I would even be okay with a reduced fine and no prison time, but I find it asinine that you can go to prison for several years for killing a fucking bird in defense of your dog.
