End Bird Shooting
Protect the Wild wants to end bird shooting
Bird shooting is:
Catastrophic for animals - not just for the millions of birds killed by 'sportsmen' each year of course but also for the mammals that are snared and trapped in huge numbers on shooting estates.
Terrible for us - because of the distress it causes us, the noise and nuisance for people living by shoots, and the pollution caused by burning thousands of acres of moorland.
An environmental disaster - our biodiversity is crashing and our climate is changing rapidly, yet the shooting industry thinks it can just keep killing wildlife and altering habitats.
