Closed petition To make the trophy hunting of wild animals by U.K. citizens, illegal.
Closed on
Not only is this practice cruel, it is a direct threat to the continued existence of many threatened and endangered species of animals, throughout the world. We do not support or condone this deliberate and malicious abuse of wild animals and we ask the British government to act on this issue.
We hereby call upon the British Government to introduce a law banning British citizens from taking part in the so called “trophy hunting” of wild animals and to ban the importation into the U.K. of any animal parts from these activities, with prosecution for offenders on re-entry to the U.K.
