Our statement on the leaked Hunting Office webinars and how they relate to hunting in #Cumbria 👇

Just a reminder:

Not a single hunt saboteurs gets paid
Not a single Hunt Saboteur Committee member gets paid

Yet we are the largest anti-hunt group in the UK by number of members, actions and number of successful hunt prosecutions

We're currently keeping an eye on the ullswater foxhounds who met at Noran bank farm this morning. Poor visibility means the support aren't seeing much as huntsman is hiding from our cameras on arnison crag

Like we've been saying

Hunting is....‘Much bigger issue than just the killing of foxes…large swathes of communities are facing intimidation, criminal damage, pets being destroyed, all of these things we have seen and more.’

Blencathra foxhounds hunting on @cumbriawildlife land at Eycott Hill in the Lake District. How could they possibly have laid a trail over land they have no permission to be on? 🧐 #TrailHuntLies

Today's the Inglorious Twelfth. The day bloodsport enthusiasts begin shooting Red Grouse for fun.

It's not a thing here in #Shetland. We have no managed grouse moors. Our hills abound with life.

You'll be told managed grouse moors are better for wildlife. It's not true.

[Hunt Saboteurs Association @HuntSabs]

THE NOT SO GLORIOUS 12TH

Hunt Saboteurs from multiple groups have shut down their first shoot of the day on the Heathfield Moor in Nidderdale.

More to follow.....

[Protect the Wild @ProtectTheWild_]

The vile pastime of ‘cubbing’ where hunts across the UK kill thousands of fox cubs to train hounds to kill is almost upon us.

We created a spoof sports show to expose this utter madness.

Please RT and help raise awareness🦊
