“Conservationists fear a colony of endangered sea birds on the North East coast could be wiped out after eggs from breeding pairs were stolen.
Durham Heritage Coast wardens said about 50 eggs from 65 nesting pairs of little terns had been taken from the site at Crimdon, near Hartlepool.
The organisation’s Niall Benson described the theft as “morally repugnant and criminal”.
Durham Police appealed for witnesses to any suspicious behaviour in the area.”
