One of Wales’ last surviving Red Squirrel colonies is under threat from a proposed “green energy park.” The Wildlife Trust of South & West Wales warns that the Bryn Arau Duon forest (home to unique, self-sustaining Red Squirrels) could be devastated by tree felling and construction.

The UK government has refused to ban bottom trawling in Marine Protected Areas — allowing one of the world’s most destructive fishing practices to continue tearing up seabeds, killing marine life, and releasing carbon. “Protected” means nothing if our oceans are still left open to destruction.

This is utterly horrific. Literally blocking the ability of people to object to nature being trashed and destroyed. What a lovely govt we have!! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The government wants to strip away your right to challenge destructive projects like Heathrow’s third runway. They’re even considering pulling the UK out of the Aarhus Convention — an international treaty that guarantees ordinary people the power to hold corporations and politicians to account.

Nigel Farage has openly backed fox hunting and even turns up at his local Boxing Day hunt. Reform UK’s manifesto promises to “protect country sports” , a clear nod to bloodsports. So would they legalise fox hunting if they got into power?

Every Boxing Day, Ludlow Hunt lets dozens of hounds run loose through Ludlow town centre — something any ordinary dog owner would be fined for. But Shropshire Council turns a blind eye, giving hunts privileges denied to everyone else. 👉 Sign the petition: protectthewild.org.uk/ludlow-hunt/

Any chance of warning the public about fox hunting, or just hare coursing you give a toss about because farmers/landowners are affected.. www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/2549686...

NatureScot, the body charged with protecting Scotland’s wildlife, handed a licence to the Men of Ness to kill 500 gannet chicks. And according to the official count, 485 fledglings were dragged from the cliffs and slaughtered. protectthewild.substack.com/p/485-gannet...

Madness. This is what the brilliant people at Committee Against Bird Slaughter (CABS) are facing simply for trying to stop the illegal trapping and killing of birds in Cyprus. Countless migrating songbirds are killed every year so they can be eaten as part of the traditional ‘ambelopoulia’ dish.

"It is clear that support for these stag hound packs is disintegrating as sabs continue to expose their bloodlust, field riders and car supporter numbers are dwindling." www.huntsabs.org.uk/the-depravit...

Animals aren’t ‘pests’. They’re living beings trying to survive in the scraps of nature we’ve left them. Yet the first response from so many people and companies is always the same: kill them. Fox in the garden? Kill them. Birds near an airport? Kill them. It’s madness.

This is state-sanctioned slaughter. Year after year, licences have allowed thousands of baby gannets to be killed in Scotland’s so-called ‘Guga Hunt’. Even in 2025, nearly 500 chicks were massacred under licence — paid for by taxpayers, justified as ‘tradition’, and carried out in secret.

A few days ago Police Scotland announced that a post-mortem examination and toxicology testing of the body of a Red KIte found in June had revealed that the bird had ingested high levels of rodenticide and had also ingested the banned pesticide aldicarb.

BREAKING: Nature Scot have told Protect the Wild that 485 gannet chicks were massacred in the 2025 'Guga Hunt' but they say they do not know how the birds were killed despite telling us "Birds taken must be killed immediately and in a humane manner" Needless slaughter.

Your daily reminder that Nigel Farage is a hunt supporting, shoot supporting bloodsport enthusiast.

North Dorset Hunt Sabs: "Killed and thrown upside down in the back like a bag of rubbish. Quantock Staghounds had themselves a sick canned hunt today, keeping a poor stag running back and forth between roads for 3 hours with scores of scummers posted at every corner to radio through his every move."

A FINAL GOODBYE TO THE VILE AVON VALE HUNT!
