Earlier this month our team was out in Selsey as part of Operation Lakeshot, led by our Head of Intelligence.

East Beach Pond is currently a hotspot for catapult attacks on wildlife, so the team provided posters to help raise awareness in the local community.

They also visited Brent Lodge Wildlife Hospital, where staff have seen the impact of catapulting on wildlife first-hand.

And it’s not just the animals who are injured. When a parent is hurt or killed, orphaned young can be left to suffer too.

If you see wildlife crime, report it to Animal Crimewatch. Your information could help protect wildlife and stop these attacks.

What does it take to end cruelty to animals and wildlife in the name of ‘sport’?

In our Guest Editor feature, David Bassom from the League Against Cruel Sports shares the organisation’s work to protect animals and challenge the hunting, shooting and abuse of wildlife across the UK.

The scale of commercial shooting is staggering. Nearly one third of UK land is used for shooting, and approximately 61 million non native game birds are released each year. Many face poor living conditions, while wildlife such as foxes and birds of prey can also be targeted to protect game bird populations.

From campaigning to end the shooting of game birds and the use of cages and snares, to calling for stronger protections for wildlife, the League shares why change is needed and how we can all help create a future with less cruelty to animals.

For Almo Nature and Fondazione Capellino, it all comes back to one belief: Nothing justifies hunting.

We are proud to support work that protects animals and wildlife, here in the UK, across Europe and around the world.

Through your Almo Nature purchases, Fondazione Capellino supports projects that protect biodiversity, reconnect habitats and restore nature. This is the Reintegration Economy in action, helping turn everyday choices into support for a better future for all life.

In 1994, League monitor Kevin Hill bravely filmed the horrific final moments of a stag hunted by hounds on Exmoor. Last month, another stag was chased by hounds and shot after fleeing into the very same River Barle.

Three decades on, deer are still suffering because loopholes in the Hunting Act allow hunts to exploit exemptions.

The original hunting ban was a landmark moment, but it did not go far enough.

The government must close these loopholes and strengthen the law to bring this cruelty to an end.

Read our blog below to discover Kevin’s story and why the law must change 👇

Let’s end this.

Now is a crucial moment for us in Northern Ireland as we head towards a ban on fox hunting and hunting other wild animals with dogs.

Northern Ireland remains the last country out of Scotland, England and Wales to enact a ban. The Hunting With Dogs Bill could end this, but we need you to tell MLAs that you want to see an end to hunting with dogs.
