🦅Thanks to keen-eyed locals who reported Moscar gamekeepers skulking about with live birds in traps. Masked, armed men patrol the Peak District National Park, which is *incidentally* a hotspot for wildlife crime. Be vigilant! Corvid traps are regularly used in raptor persecution


➰Badger dies from injuries after snaring in #Derbyshire. 🐾Snares are banned in Scotland and Wales. They must be banned in England! 💚Thanks to those who tried to help this poor #badger. 🦡Be vigilant in the countryside folks. Chris Packham Animal Aid bbc.com/news/articles/…




Killing of wildlife continues in freezing temperatures and icy conditions on #Sheffield grouse shooting moors with large rodent crushed in this DOC trap. I believe this trap is set unlawfully South Yorkshire Police see photo below
