Forestry England is responsible for managing and promoting the nation’s forests owned by the Government of the United Kingdom. However, what many people do not realise is that up until 2020 Forestry England gave permissions for ‘trail hunts’ to use its land.

Following a year-long campaign ran by Protect the Wild and other groups, Forestry England suspended all ‘trail hunt’ licences on their land in November 2020. We are now calling on this landowner, as well as others, to make these suspensions permanent. 

Hunts are frequently in the press for alleged trespass, killing wildlife and domestic animals, losing control of their dogs and violent behaviour towards those who monitor them.
