Hi Friend,
Recently, the Welsh Government has announced its intention to ban snaring of wild animals in Wales.
Snares are notorious for causing unnecessary suffering, injury, or death to the targeted animals as well as non-target species. The use of snares can lead to unintended consequences, such as capturing non-target animals, including domestic pets.
This Spring and Summer, AWIP Investigators will be out in the countryside investigating wildlife criminals who are using snares and traps illegally.
We want to understand the public's perception of snaring and trapping in Wales. To do this, we need your help by asking you to take our quick 5-minute survey.
Here's the first question: Are you aware that the Welsh Government recently announced its intention to ban snaring of wild animals in Wales?
Yes, I am aware
I've heard about it, but I don't know the details
No, I was not aware
We have created a survey that will allow us to understand the public's perception of snaring and trapping. Your response to this survey will be essential in helping us to gather accurate information about this issue.
We urge you to take the survey as soon as possible. Your response will help us to gather evidence about the public's attitude towards snaring and trapping. With your support, we can end the use of snares and traps in Wales and protect our wildlife from harm.
Here's that first question again: Are you aware that the Welsh Government recently announced its intention to ban snaring of wild animals in Wales?
Yes, I am aware
I've heard about it, but I don't know the details
No, I was not aware
Together, we can put an end to this cruel and unjust practice and ensure a brighter future for wildlife.
For the animals,
Team AWIP
