Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
Harry Potter falconer, who supplied bird of prey for the movie, has been put behind bars in the U.K. after pleading guilty to neglect.
Kenneth Lea was jailed for 12 weeks on 17 charges of neglect involving over 51 specialist birds at his farm in Bradford, England.
The 50-year-old came to the attention of the courts after the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals RSPCA were tipped off about the "filthy" conditions.
The birds, including owls, falcons and hawks were emaciated and plastered in blood and dirt.
Lea provided nine of the creatures for use in several scenes of 2005's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
The successful franchise returns to the big screen with Half Blood Prince, the penulitmate book in J.K Rowlings' series.
However the final novel Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows will be split into two lovies to be released in 2010 and 2011.
