🔗 Join us in taking this important step towards better protecting wild animals in England and Wales.
Respond to the consultation now: www.wcl.org.uk/ending-trail...
We’re calling not only for a ban on trail hunting but for stronger protections for wildlife:
🦊 Strengthen the Hunting Act 2004
🦊 Close loopholes that allow illegal hunting to continue
🦊 Introduce tougher penalties for those who break the law
Between August 2024 and March 2025, the League Against Cruel Sports received 474 reports of suspected illegal hunting across England and Wales but the true figure is likely much higher.
Have your say on the future of trail hunting in England and Wales ✍️ Years of evidence indicate that trail hunting is being used as a cover for illegal fox hunting.

With your help, PTES has been funding Dr Brawin Kumarand the Madras Hedgehog Conservation Project in Tamil Nadu. They're working to protect the Madras #hedgehogs by studying their populations and educating the local community about their #conservation importance.
Madras hedgehogs, also known as bare-bellied hedgehogs, live in south-eastern Indian. They look very similar to their European hedgehog cousins but have larger ears and a paler face. They live in arid grasslands, and feed on insects.
