From the onset of our involvement in the anti-hunt movement, we have been keenly aware of the widespread prevalence of illegal hunting practices throughout the UK.
Through these years, our focus and advocacy against hunting led us to acknowledge the invaluable efforts of hunt saboteur and hunt monitor groups. These dedicated groups tirelessly combat illegal hunting through diverse methods, often documenting their observations and experiences on the ground.
However, we noticed there was a lack of centralised collation and comprehensive analysis of the data and reports compiled by these groups. Despite the commendable work of these individuals and organisations in documenting first-hand accounts, there was a need to consolidate these scattered reports into a singular, comprehensive overview. To address this gap, over the last six months Protect the Wild’s Glen Black has worked on a six-month-long project to consolidate this scattered data into one place.
The primary objective of this endeavour was to create a consolidated report that presents a detailed overview of the prevalent issues surrounding illegal hunting.
And today we are incredibly proud to release the outcome of these efforts in the form of the ‘Hunting: A Case for Change’ Report. Focusing on fox, hare and deer hunting during the 22/23 season in England and Wales, it uncovers the shocking impact hunting has on both wildlife and communities.
The report reveals alarming findings, underscoring the persistent challenges in dealing with hunting practices:
