How long is the sentence for catching a shrike? I learned that the shrike is a third-level protected animal in my country and cannot be captured or killed at will. If you catch one illegally, you will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than 5 years, and if the circumstances are serious, you will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years, life imprisonment, or death, and you will also be fined or have property confiscated.
Therefore, if you encounter this wild shrike in the wild, remember not to capture it at will. Once captured, You will face criminal penalties and even severe punishment by law.
