Rejected petition: Stop Kier Starmer killing the Dartmoor ponies

Rejected on

We want the Government to protect Dartmoor ponies by ensuring that environmental and grazing policies do not result in the culling or significant reduction of the free-roaming pony population on Dartmoor.

Dartmoor ponies have roamed the moor for centuries and are a vital part of its heritage and landscape. We are concerned that changes to grazing and land management policies could lead to a significant reduction in pony numbers.

We want the Government to protect Dartmoor ponies, support sustainable grazing, and work with local pony keepers to ensure these iconic animals remain on Dartmoor for future generations.
