Report a wildlife crime

If your incident needs reporting urgently please contact the police on '101' where you can report crimes that have already taken place. If you have already done this, please provide any details of the officer you spoke with or any reference number you may have been provided with.

If possible, please provide the exact date and time of the incident. If you do not know the date of the incident, or if it is ongoing, please provide any details you can e.g. 'during the last month' or 'every weekend'.

Please describe the exact location using information such as landmarks, road numbers, distances and directions. Imagine someone trying to find the place if they have never been to the area before. Please give the postcode and/or grid reference if you know them.

Please describe exactly what happened, including as much relevant information as you can. Try to explain just what was seen or heard, rather than guessing what happened.

Is any physical evidence of the crime available? e.g. dead bird, suspected poison bait, illegal trap etc. Where is this evidence now? Have any photographs of the suspected crime scene been taken?

Please give a description and names or addresses if possible.

Are they a likely suspect or were they actually seen committing the crime?

If so please give as many details as you can (colour, vehicle type, registration, make and model).
