It is legal to fish for Critically Endangered Eels in the UK?!
It is possible for anyone aged 13+ to buy a fishing license; however, it becomes illegal if a caught eel is not returned to the water. However as the £800 fine showed people are breaking this rule.
#ProtectAnimals
Most UK wildfires are started by people, not nature, and they’re rising with climate change. Wildlife is suffering in silence, and recovery takes years. Let’s protect what can’t speak for itself. 🦊🌿

Rural Crime In The Crosshairs
This #WednesdayWins, we are celebrating the National Rural Crime Unit and National Wildlife Crime Unit receiving £800,000 to combat wildlife crime! We are surrounded by bad news, so let's celebrate the animal victories, however big or small.
The grindadráp (the controversial hunting of whales and dolphins in the Faroe Islands) continues to spark global outrage. And yet, the UK has signed another agreement with the Faroe Islands, turning a blind eye to cruelty, environmental harm, & outdated practices.

“John was barely a year old… and he was hunted to death.”
"There was no mercy. No bullet. Just men on horseback watching as the dogs tore him apart."
In his latest article, Philip Kratz exposes the UK’s moral disconnection from nature:

#BanHunting
30 June, MPs debated a petition to ban driven grouse shooting. However, the Government had already rejected the ban, so the debate felt pointless.
Instead of addressing cruelty, habitat destruction, & illegal killings, many MPs defended the shooting industry

Every year, countless frogs and toads are crushed on roads. It doesn’t have to be this way. Wildlife underpasses slash amphibian deaths by 94%! The UK must adopt this proven solution now, before it’s too late for vulnerable species.
#WildlifeEncounters
Over 210,000 badgers have been killed since 2013—yet science shows they’re not the main cause of bovine TB. Vaccination works. The cull doesn’t. It’s ineffective, inhumane, and must end.
Know the facts. Challenge the policy.

Not all good intentions help wildlife 🎾
Giving tennis balls as homes to harvest mice may seem kind, but it disrupts their natural nesting, affects natural selection, and adds plastic pollution. Let’s support wildlife by preserving natural habitats instead. 🌿🐭

Were you aware that this crime leads to jail time?🐒
Natalie Herron is the first Scottish woman jailed for distributing graphic footage of baby macaques being tortured. Her 2+ year sentence sends a clear message: animal cruelty will not be tolerated.
#AnimalCruelty#Scotland
Despite the the Hunting Act 2004 which banned hunting with hounds, wildlife continues to suffer.
In Parliament, MPs revealed how trail hunting is being used as a cover, leading to wild animals being chased, harmed, or killed. #BanFoxHunting#UKPolitics
@NeilForPoole Thank you for organising this political nudge. Looking forward to the government fulfilling its manifesto pledge and welcoming a more compassionate generation that values both sentient life and the conservation of species. #compassionateconservation
@NeilForPoole Thank you. And well done for mentioning stag hunting which is now just days away from starting up again, and hare hunting which has sadly started already, neither of which would be effected by just banning trail hunting
Two men who destroyed the beloved 200-year-old tree have been jailed for >4 years. Their reckless act erased a national icon, but their act didn’t go unpunished.
