Halloween artificial cobweb material:
It may be a bit of fake fun for you, but it's a very real and terrifying death for them.
And it's not only birds.
I've had my first call of the season of a hedgehog trapped in this horrific fake 'cobweb', made especially for gullible halloweeners to spread over their greenery, trapping all unsuspecting birds, insects and mammals, including hedgehogs.
The fine synthetic fibers are difficult for animals to see and can quickly wrap around their legs, spines, and neck, leading to severe injuries.
When a hedgehog struggles to free herself the web tightens, cutting off circulation and causing deep wounds. These constriction injuries often lead to permanent damage or death.
Unfortunately the call was from Manchester, so all I could do was talk them through getting the poor creature to a rescue.
Clearly she had been trapped there for at least one night, and her struggles had pulled the strong nylon strands so tightly that one of her toes had been amputated.
Can you imagine the pain and the sheer terror?
And then seeing dawn approach, while hanging there, tightly bound and helpless.
Aside from being stressed, dehydrated, starving and exhausted to the point of near death, she also had horrific bite/peck wounds to her face, where she had been held there, helpless, unable to curl and defend herself, while a predator tried to eat her alive.
If you have used this deadly cruel trap to 'decorate' your garden, please take it down now.
Please don't be conned by the greedy makers and sellers of this rubbish into hurting defenceless animals.
This is a cut down version of a chat I had with @iancollinsuk on @TalkTV We are discussing the shocking slaughter of 3 Million stray dogs in #Morocco in preparation for @FIFAWorldCup in 2030. All animal loving football supporters please shout about this!
Irene J Davidson is Reform Uk’s candidate for #Blundellsands Ward, #Sefton, #Liverpool in the 19th June by-election.
She’s @IreneD10598 on Twitter, buckle up as this one’s a rollercoaster.
But let’s start with her idea to tattoo everyone that arrives on our shores on a small boat.
Tattoo on arrival.
Seriously @reformparty_uk?
@BenBrooks645096 @JAU_4@robprogressive I would guess it's extremely difficult for many to save up a decent deposit due to rising rents and THEN while they are saving house prices keep rising. We need more Rent To Own schemes and I don't mean shared ownership.
Apparently the bots 'n folk that check if posts break rules may have missed this one despite it being pointed out to them. I can't be the ONLY one to see this as Anti-Semetic Tropes can I? Over to you IF anyone is reading this #Tropes#AntiSemetic#Hate#Racism#NotCool
