Ban the use of netting on roofs and outdoor structures
Thousands of birds are reported to get trapped in netting yearly, and many may die in pain and fear from the horrific injuries sustained trying to free themselves e.g. breaking their entangled limbs. Others may die of dehydration and starvation and rescuers are too late.
Toxic pest deterrent being recommended
A resident is warning that Jeyes Fluid, a highly toxic substance that can seriously harm or kill animals, is being suggested as a fox deterrent. The warning aims to prevent animal welfare harm.
Ban the sale and use of rat poison due to the negative impact on wildlife
The Rodenticide Stewardship Scheme (RSS) was created in 2015 to reduce wildlife being exposed to toxic anticoagulant rodenticides. Exposure has unfortunately risen, as these poisons are found in our water, birds and fish. We need urgent regulatory change to ban these products.
Introduce prison sentences for deliberate cruelty to wild birds including pigeon
We call on the UK Government to amend existing wildlife and animal welfare legislation to introduce custodial prison sentences for any individual who deliberately goes out with the intention of injuring or killing wild bird, specifically including pigeons, using catapults or similar weapons.
Ban the non-stun slaughter of animals
Ban non-stun slaughter. We think it is cruel and causes unnecessary harm to the animals being slaughtered/butchered.
