For over 100 years, we have been campaigning on behalf of the magnificent birds of prey in the UK. So much good work has already been done. However, persecution is still causing the deaths of hundreds of birds of prey every year, despite the fact it is illegal and has been for decades.
In 2011 we received 100 reports of poisoning or use of poison bait – we must not allow all our efforts to be in vain. Our campaign is calling for an end to this unacceptable cruelty once and for all.
