Absolutely shocking.
We're offering an overall award of £10k for information that leads to a conviction in these cases.
We need to make raptor persecution a thing of the past.

“Rural pursuits” was a big talking point of the recent presidential election. It’s a delicate euphemism for bloodsports, specifically hunting foxes with packs of dogs. 👇

Is it time for our water companies to be taken back into public ownership? MP Clive Lewis and the organisation Compass certainly think so

Tomorrow morning we will be releasing video of this fox hunt which lasted several minutes as hunt staff watched on. Watch how many times the fox was forced to evade capture.

Scotland has enjoyed a Right to Roam for decades, supported by a detailed code of access that helps people enjoy nature responsibly. We hope to learn from this and create a new system of fair and responsible access in England.

Snares are a crime against wildlife, but in England we allow them. Labour made a manifesto commitment to ban them - they need to deliver that. For Wildlife's sake.
