I spent last weekend in Whitby. Driving across the moors to my destination was incredibly depressing: lots of burnt out land and not a single bird to be seen - either going or returning.

“I am here to defend the right of people to commit criminal acts (for 2 decades).” He does realise that the public objective of the BHSA is to promote “riding to hounds” not illegal fox hunting?! How does someone that obtuse get to senior government?

Devon and Somerset Staghounds 20.04.24

On Saturday we teamed up with sabs from lots of other groups to oppose the closing meet of the Devon and Somerset Staghounds at Cussacombe Gate on Exmoor. (1/21)

A decent sentence for four hare coursers. lincs.police.uk/news/lincolnsh…

Birds of prey get shot so frequently in Yorkshire that reports of new incidents have to qualify that they aren’t the same incidents that happened the previous week. The absolute shame of it 😧.

Surprise surprise! It's been reported that Ben Wallace, former secretary of defence, is joining the BHSA board. (The British Hound Sports Association) - a pro hunting lobby group.

Wallace oversaw the MOD when hunts were given licences to use its land.

The work of one of our investigators also features heavily in this in this informative piece - as the only two successful cubbing convictions in the UK (to date), which both involved a hunt that packed up last year.

Victory at the closing meet of the Quantock Staghounds yesterday. THE most shambolic, humiliating day for them, our upcoming report will be a must read! We believe that not a single stag has been killed on the Quantocks THIS YEAR! With Mendip Hunt Sabs, 3C hunt sabs Wildlife Guardian

It’s happening again. Stag currently being hunted by the Quantock Staghounds near Alfoxton, north west of Holford.

The fantastic North Dorset Hunt Saboteurs and Mendip Hunt Sabs are there doing all they can to delay the hunt and save the hunted stag.

We have a new guest blogger - James Hart. He is a trainee barrister with a professional interest in wildlife crime, especially hunting. Here are his insights into the Hunting Act 2004 and the elements required to make a case. wildlifeguardian.co.uk/blog/unravelli…

It was the last meet of the season on Saturday for the Devon & Somerset Staghounds with 3 WG investigators present. Hunt Saboteurs Association saved 2 stags but despite their best efforts a 3rd was chased to exhaustion & shot. Blatant cruelty & a national embarrassment.

Dead? Quantock Staghounds chased this beautiful boy today and sabs heard a gunshot and cheering in National Trust land Staple Plantation/Vinny Combe at the end of the day. No body was seen though and they all drifted away. QSH have previous for faking kills... 🤞With Wildlife Guardian

Shooting more and more badgers dead is not the solution to tackling the spread of tBT in cattle.

The dairy industry needs to fix its bio security, stop moving infected dairy cows around the country, and work to stop cattle-to-cattle transmission – not demonise badgers.

We've now reached a time, thanks to the government and NFU slaughter of badgers. That in some areas, badgers can no longer be found to kill. Yet the slaughter goes on. We're being robbed of our wildlife, our environment and of clean water in our rivers and seas, for greed.

Clearly, from the way hunt hooligans drive/ride all over them, the National Parks in the UK exist in name only. channel4.com/news/75-years-…

Quantock Staghounds sabbed by their own hound today! Shooter was sneaking up on exhausted stag hiding in gorse when a hound ran in and scared him off! Sabs followed the hunt on foot for over 11 miles, kicking them out of Forestry England land and disrupting the search so no kill

At one time (pre 2000) the hunters would have faced no consequences for even serious assaults. Those days are over.
