Email your MP - Ban Trophy Hunting imports to the UK!

The British government wants to allow exemptions to rich trophy hunters

Please tell your MP that is not acceptable. 85% of the British public want an immediate ban on hunting trophy imports. No exceptions

If you have a UK postal address, signing this petition will send the email below [click 'read petition letter'] to your MP, from your email address.

Dear [MP],

Trophy hunting is cruel, barbaric, and is helping to push some of the world's most endangered wildlife ever closer towards extinction.


British trophy hunters have killed hundreds of endangered lions, hippos, leopards, rhinos, zebras and other animals in recent years, and brought their 'trophies' back to this country.


EDM 50 calls for a ban on the import of hunting trophies into Britain. This is an important step in bringing an end to this terrible industry.


Animals killed by trophy hunters often suffer slow, painful deaths. It has no place in a modern, civilised society.


This is an issue I and many others feel very strongly about. As my elected representative, will you take a clear public stance that reflects my views and those of your constituents, and if you haven't already, support EDM 50?

Sincerely,

Today SHOULD have been good news for all of us who have been campaigning for a ban on hunting trophies coming into Britain, but the government's Animal Welfare Action Plan fails to deliver.

In 2019, The Conservative Party denounced as “morally indefensible”

Now, it has diluted that pledge to ban hunting trophies ’ to something so weak that they could allow Brits to bring home trophies of CRITICALLY ENDANGERED BLACK RHINOS!

Please write to your MP to tell them this is not acceptable

It is now TWO weeks since the Consultation deadline passed, a consultation that was FOUR months long! While we wait for Defra to announce its decision, elephants are being auctioned to trophy hunters in Botswana, and at hunting fairs around the world

Tell your MP you want no more delay!

Dear Friend
Thank you for signing the earlier version of this petition last year, the British consultation on trophy hunting closes in less than a week and we are urging politicians to implement Option 3 as quickly as possible.
Please share this petition and urge Boris Johnson to follow through on his message of 2019 calling for an end to this barbaric practice. By banning hunting trophy imports and exports, Britain can help begin to close this chapter in our history.
Thankyou!
