Bird netting is found in railway stations, hotels, urban buildings to stop birds from nesting. But it results in birds being trapped and left to starve.

For too long, millions of animals have suffered in silence 💔.
The Government's new Animal Welfare Strategy sets out a bold vision for wildlife, companion animals, farmed animals and animals overseas - but is it enough?

Our undercover investigation exposed disturbing conditions at an AKC-affiliated New York puppy mill—dogs suffering from illness and neglect and living in filthy, overcrowded cages. No animal deserves this.

Great write up on the sickening Guga hunt and why it has to end
Calls to end 'barbaric' Scottish island hunt that kills hundreds of gannets
Calls are being made to put an end to the North Lewis tradition of the Guga hunt, in which, annually, a group of ten men kill gannet chicks

It’s been 20 years since hunting wild mammals with dogs was banned, yet illegal hunting is still rising. This season alone: 601 incidents of hunt havoc, a 16% increase in suspected illegal hunting, 211 foxes chased, dozens of trespass cases. It’s #TimeForChange in 2026.

Mountain Hare (Lepus timidus): This 65cm (26in) mammal is a Palearctic hare, meaning it is adapted for mountainous and polar habitats. Isolated populations are found in Siberia, Finland, Ireland, Scotland, Baltic states, Poland and the Alps. Nice photo taken by Alistair Kemp in Glenshee, Scotland.

Campaigning works!📣 After pressure from FOUR PAWS and other animal welfare NGOs, Stena Lines halted calf exports from Ireland to France this year.
This now halted route transported over 260,000 cattle alone in 2025, with over 200,000 of those being unweaned calves.
