Very pleased that @bobelliot.bsky.social will be the first Wild Justice CEO. He’s a great guy and a good fit. Onwards and upwards!

It's quite clear the Scottish Govt has no plans to address the significant weakening of the grouse moor licences, even though it acknowledges there are issues. There are other options to address it, it's just more difficult. C'est la vie. #RaptorResearch raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/02/26/m...

Today, Sam Staniland, the former huntsman of the Essex and Suffolk Hunt, appeared at Ipswich Magistrates’ Court facing six charges related to animal cruelty, including allowing dogs to fight with badgers and foxes. www.huntsabs.org.uk/ex-huntsman-...

Missed the segment on hunting on Countryfile the other week? We’ve got you covered. I sat down and reacted to it, putting some facts straight too! youtu.be/axokDuZaYnk?...

Former bird shooter speaks out on the cruelty of it!

It’s absurd – devastating our landscapes and harming the environment just to breed red grouse for people to gun down for fun. This isn’t the future we want 😡

Hare shooting is unfortunately still lawful in the UK, although the 80% decline in numbers of hares has led to calls for a ban on hare shooting during their February to September breeding season. protectthewild.substack.com/p/sabs-disru...

Last night on my way to the pub, I was delighted to find lots of frogs and toads crossing the road in the rain. Then I discovered to my horror that lots had already been squashed by cars 😢 I tried to help the ones I could by putting them in verges & hedges, but lots had been killed...

She is the 2nd hen harrier to 'disappear' in suspicious circumstances in this area & the 134th missing/killed hen harrier in the UK since 2018 (that we know of - there'll be many others, untagged, that have been shot & stamped into the peat). #RaptorResearch raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/02/20/s...

England’s most precious nature sites—SSSIs—are meant to protect rare wildlife and habitats. But a new FOI request submitted by PTW reveals hunting is still being allowed.

We are sharing this fundraiser once again. Hunt sabs often have to trespass to save hunted animals from barbaric hunters, and it’s important that sabs are supported when we do this. Please help Northants Hunt Saboteurs reach their target. www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/5ffc292da2...

𝗧𝗔𝗨𝗡𝗧𝗢𝗡 𝗩𝗔𝗟𝗘 𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗥𝗦 – 𝗔 𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗣𝗨𝗕𝗟𝗜𝗖 𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗛 On Thursday 30th Jan, a Somerset woman witnessed a pack of hounds tearing a fox apart after her afternoon was interrupted by a pack of hunting hounds running through the paddock outside her house. www.huntsabs.org.uk/taunton-vale...

A senior police officer believes the ban on fox hunting is still regularly being broken 20 years after it was introduced. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

After 2 decades of useless legislation this should hopefully signal the end of fox, hare and stag hunting with dogs. www.thecanary.co/uk/news/2025...

Today's video looks at why 20 years on, the Hunting Act has failed animals - youtu.be/dW2L_GvAwl0?...

Today our Head of Campaigns and Communications, joined partners of the Time for Change Coalition at Downing Street to hand in our petition, calling for stronger hunting laws. A huge thank you to everyone who signed. Now it's time for the government to act! #TimeForChange

The amount of suffering created in these few seconds is beyond comprehension. Fish feel pain.

20 years to this day, the fox hunting ban was enforced. It hasn't worked. Today more than ever is a great time to sign our petition for a proper ban on hunting. protectthewild.org.uk/our-campaign...

The ‘carnivore diet' is the most unhinged scam in the history of diet advice. Here is the evidence! Please help spread this far and wide. 🌱👇

20 years on and the Hunting ban clearly isn’t working, it’s failing wildlife. We need a proper ban on hunting! Share if you agree!

The Yawar Festival in Peru ties condors to bulls in a brutal spectacle that causes immense suffering to both animals and threatens the condor species' survival. 💔 #peru #animals #animalrights #vegan

UK citizens needed here‼️🦡 Over 230,000 badgers have already been killed, and if the government gets its way, thousands more will die—despite overwhelming scientific evidence that culling does not stop bovine TB in cattle. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Please sign - it's time to end the cruel and useless cull of badgers, even the Government has said it is ineffective!

If you, or anyone you know, likes birdwatching and struggles with poor mental health. I’d love to send an e-copy of Bird Therapy (pdf) to read for free. It can be helpful to know you’re not alone. Please message me if you do and also consider sharing this post. #naturewriting #birdtherapy #booksky

If you would like to see the end of widespread and routine killing of the UK's largest carnivorous mammal, then please consider signing this petition. If it gets to 100,000 then there is a good chance that the subject will be debated in Parliament. Every signature counts..... Go on, go on, go on....

This is a common & widespread practice taking place across the UK. More mindless, selfish, illegal behaviour from the gamebird shooting industry who claim to be the 'custodians of the countryside'. #Ornithology raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/02/17/s...

There is no place for the bird shooting industry

#ThePeregrineThief just arrived today, to complete the set of @wildlifeblog.bsky.social #AlanStewart's excellent trilogy - novels by Alan, but based very much on his extensive experience & knowledge as #Scotland's famous #WildlifeDetective Well worth a read folks 📚

Tossed away like trash—that’s the harsh reality of the badger cull. Thousands of innocent badgers are needlessly slaughtered in a failed attempt to control TB. This cruelty has to end. ✍️ Sign the petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

A two-year investigation has found that @wwf.org.uk have been lobbying for the continued international trade of polar bear fur , all while using imagery of these beautiful animals for their fundraising . Despicable . www.theguardian.com/environment/...
