Saving wildlife and wild places

The Wildlife Trust is supporting the RSPB as it attempts to protect hen harriers in the Forest of Bowland. We are happy for the RSPB to lead this campaign and believe they have the resources to boost numbers of this threatened raptor.

The Trust will continue to work tirelessly to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats in the region but, at the same time, we will campaign with our sister trusts on a national basis.

We are firmly opposed to the proposed badger cull and over the past couple of years have strongly campaigned against the it, calling for inoculation as evidence is strongly against killing these iconic and important UK mammals.

We believe that the problem is Bovine TB (not badgers) and the challenge is to control the disease.
