Moor burning kills wildlife, releases carbon, and destroys wetlands. It must end. Call it what it is: environmental vandalism for grouse shooting.

Licensing would shut down debate on banning grouse shooting for decades. And if such a scheme were introduced here, it would be overseen by Natural England — the same body behind the disastrous Hen Harrier “brood meddling” and long accused of cosying up to the shooting industry.

Two Hen Harrier chicks born on National Trust land in the Peak District have been fitted with satellite tags. Why? Because once they leave their nest, they face one of the deadliest threats in our uplands: grouse moors. Hen Harriers are relentlessly persecuted.

Anyone else see the sick irony in this article? The whole piece glossing over the fact people blasting birds out of the sky for fun should be a bloody rural crime too! southwestfarmer.co.uk/news/25415956.…

Today marks the start of partridge shooting in the UK. Each year, tens of millions of birds are factory-farmed, released, and gunned down — all perfectly legal, with government backing. Most people have no idea this is happening, let alone the scale of killing.

Today marks the start of the partridge shooting season. Across the country, lines of talentless cowards will stand shoulder to shoulder, blasting thousands of beautiful birds out of the sky for nothing more than their own amusement.

Tens of millions of partridges are bred in cages, raised in sheds, and then dumped into fields, just to be shot for fun. This is legal. And it’s happening right now across Britain. We’re campaigning to end bird shooting once and for all. Please follow us & join the fight. ✊🌱

This is mental. Natural England proudly describes Lindisfarne as one of England’s most important National Nature Reserves, home to half the world’s population of Pale-bellied Brent Geese, yet at the same time it allows BASC to raffle off the chance to blast kill these birds.

🦅 The Yorkshire Dales has ended its “Bird of Prey Partnership” after years of raptors vanishing on grouse moors. Hen harriers, buzzards, peregrines, red kites, all lost for profit. Ending a sham scheme isn’t enough. We need action, not excuses. #news

Two satellite-tagged Golden Eagles, Tarras and Wren, have vanished in Dumfries & Galloway. Police say the data from Tarras’ tag shows “suspicious patterns” before he disappeared near shooting estates. His mate has also gone missing.

Imagine if we told you we’ve spent the last six months infiltrating the British bird shooting industry, and that everything we’ve uncovered is about to be exposed in just a few days.

The British bird shooting industry is going to be so so so pissed off when they see what we've filmed undercover for the last 6 months..

Imagine if we placed an undercover worker inside a farm breeding birds for the shooting industry, filming everything, every day, for two straight weeks.

The biggest ever undercover investigation into the British bird shooting industry. Safe to say we're pretty excited to release our findings. Coming soon..
