Action & Advice for the General Public
Help stop ‘hunt havoc’ to protect our wildlife and keep our countryside safer
Hunting animals including fox, hare, deer and mink is illegal yet these animals and their young still continue to be hunted illegally. Over 80% of the public agree with the Hunting Act 2004 which forbids the hunting of wild animals with dogs in the UK and Wales. You can help to stop this and be the real voice for the countryside…
Hounds Off offers online resources to help you to report wildlife crime and help protect the Hunting Ban.
