Sir David Attenborough has backed a £30 million campaign to buy and rewild the 15-square-mile Rothbury Estate in Northumberland, a former grouse moor once owned by Lord Max Percy. The Wildlife Trusts aim to restore its bogs, woodlands, and farmland, creating a 40-mile wildlife corridor.

Terabytes of footage. Shocking discoveries. The fight to end bird shooting starts now.

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.

A few days ago Police Scotland announced that a post-mortem examination and toxicology testing of the body of a Red KIte found in June had revealed that the bird had ingested high levels of rodenticide and had also ingested the banned pesticide aldicarb.

🚨 Animals and even pets are being targeted and killed all across the UK at increasing rates with catapults & ball bearings according to the RSPCA.

But the media has a bias and is hypocritical about which animals are worth our outage.

🦅 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.

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 these very birds out of the sky.

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 all legal. And it’s happening right now across Britain.

We’re campaigning to end bird shooting once and for all. Please follow us and join the fight. ✊🌱

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.

Bird shooting culture: after killing, they wipe the blood of the animal on each other’s faces. They call it ‘blooding’. We call it barbaric.

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.

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.

Britain’s countryside is now a playground for the elite, where animals are caged, killed, and dumped—funded by your taxes. This isn’t conservation. It’s cruelty disguised as tradition.
August 15, 2025 at 12:01 PM
“Jobs and livelihoods” is the excuse — but driven grouse shooting props up the rich, not rural Britain. Killing wildlife for sport isn’t compassion. It’s bloodsport in disguise. Follow us at @endbirdshooting.bsky.social

1/5th of Scotland’s land is used for bird shooting! 😡

Grouse shooting supposedly supports approximately 2,640 jobs. However, it requires about 330 hectares to create a single job, making it one of the least economically efficient land uses.
June 6, 2025 at 2:07 PM
How is this not being spoken about more? Approximately 1.5 million hectares of Scotland's land are managed for grouse shooting, accounting for about 7% of the country's total land area

King Charles livid he might have to cancel his Boxing Day bird shoot!

Mark our words, we will shut down bird shooting here in the UK - we do not care how long it takes.
