🦝 Feeding wild animals can make them less fearful of humans, which can lead to aggressive behavior and the need to capture or euthanize an animal for public safety reasons. Keep your family, pets, and wildlife safe by securing wildlife attractants: • Use wildlife resistant garbage cans. • Secure your livestock behind a strong fence or with electric fencing. • Supervise your pets while outdoors and use short leashes. • Feed pets indoors or remove outside food after feeding. • Keep picnic and grilling areas clean. • Secure outdoor freezers or fridges.

From blood sports to development concerns, 1000s of badgers become victims of wildlife crimes every year. Yet how the law protects different animals is inconsistent – there's clear inequality and unfairness in the current legislation. Why not ask your local Police and Crime Commissioner candidates if they'll support four key requests to help protect badgers and nature? Need help? If you agree with our requests, we've created a handy letter template for you to send to all the candidates in your area👇 https://buff.ly/3Ukj8eA Did you know? Badgers are still one of the main native species featured in horrific cruelty videos shared online. Our campaign in 2023/24 helped get changes to the Online Safety Bill to include wild animals. This shows campaigns can succeed if enough people get involved. Let’s speak up for badgers. #StopBadgerCrime

Accidents involving deer are unfortunately common, especially during certain times of the year. I was called to the scene of an RTC this morning after a member of the public reported an injured deer in the road. Sadly the lactating female roe deer was beyond help so I have to humanely despatch her. The driver who hit the deer never reported in the incident. If you hit a deer while driving, it's crucial to know how to respond appropriately. Here are the steps you should take: 1. Ensure Human Safety First: Move your vehicle to a safe place and turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers. 2. Do Not Approach the Deer: An injured deer can be unpredictable and may cause further harm to itself or to you. Maintain a safe distance. 3. Make a note of your exact location, ideally using an app such as what3words 4. Contact Authorities: Report the incident to the local wildlife rescue centre, and if requested to do so please also call the police. They can manage the situation and ensure the deer is treated humanely. 5. Document the Scene: If it is safe to do so, take photos of the scene and the damage to your vehicle. This can be useful for insurance claims. 6. Check Your Vehicle: Before continuing your journey, ensure your vehicle is safe to drive. Look for any significant damage that might make driving dangerous. By following these steps, you can help ensure the safety and welfare of both people and wildlife. Remember, swift and responsible action can make a significant difference in these situations. Stay safe on the roads! #deer #wildliferescue #wildlife
