GOOD NEWS: Lead shot will be banned! RESULT!

After years of campaigning, the use of toxic lead ammunition by the shooting industry will be banned. This is excellent news for people's health and for wildlife.

You did it! A big massive THANK YOU to everyone who supported our crowdfunder and helped us reach our target.

Next stop, the High Court, along with colleagues at @badgertrust.bsky.social where we take on Natural England who, we say, issued Badger cull licences against NE's own scientific advice. 🦡🦡

WOW! What a magnificent response to our crowdfunder to support our legal challenge against the Badger cull licences! Over £30k raised yesterday!

We're just under £4k short of our target - can you help us help the Badgers? 🦡🔽

The government are consulting on proposed changes to the regulations around burning heather and grass.

We know this isn't good for us, or good for the environment.

Please respond: we've written a handy guide here ▶️ wildjustice.org.uk/general/plea...

'Nature group threatens judicial review against Labour's planning bill.'

The new planning bill is environmentally regressive. We're asking Angela Rayner to correct her statement that says it's not.

Too edgy for Private Eye?

We recently ran the 1st of 3 ads in Private Eye magazine. But after our 1st they told us they wouldn't run any more.

Did they give in to pressure from the shooting industry or another vested interest?

Private Eye- too establishment for Wild Justice!
