State game wardens are offering $1,000 for any information leading to the arrest of the person(s) who shot and injured two peregrine falcons in Oakland. Both protected under the California endangered species law, a mother bird and her three-month-old daughter "suffered pellet wounds on their wings and bodies this month in Oakland."
