Topgolf’s use of massive 120-foot-high nets to contain golf balls has repeatedly led to birds becoming trapped or injured, prompting animal rights activists to escalate their concerns with legal measures. The practice, while intended to prevent balls from straying onto neighboring properties, has drawn criticism for its unintended consequences on wildlife. Advocates argue that the nets pose a growing threat to birds, raising questions about whether the entertainment venue’s operations prioritize safety over environmental impact. Legal action could force a review of how these facilities balance recreation with wildlife protection.
Birds getting caught in the 120-foot nets at Topgolf locations around the country are sadly par for the course, and animal rights activists are now taking legal action.
