Since the 1980s, falconers have been employed to clear away hooded crows from the Kremlin in Moscow, which were damaging the gold plated domes as well as causing a nuisance through noise and droppings. During the Soviet era, the falconers were under the authority of the KGB and their work was an official secret.
