Closed petition Ban all forms of hunting and introduce harsher penalties

We think we need a total ban on all forms of hunting. We also think we need harsher penalties for those who are found guilty of illegal hunting.

More details

We are concerned that there are hunts on live prey still taking place. We think that those who break the law need to serve prison time and fines are not enough of a deterrent. I've seen troubling footage online of animals suffering due to illegal hunts.
