During the last Ice Age, most parts of Ireland were covered in thick sheets of ice. As the ice retreated, many animals from the south moved northwards through continental Europe. Unfortunately, many—including the mole—did not make it to Ireland as the sea level rose too quickly. As a result, Ireland was left without moles.

We need YOUR help to fix this! This is one of the great travesties of Mother Nature, and a rare instance where we believe She actually got it wrong. We believe this should be corrected for the sake of all the people of Ireland. Those who have seen moles up close or even just witnessed the magic of their molehills and tunnels know that these little critters are a true blessing and that no one should be deprived of their wonder.

Please join us in getting this issue the attention it deserves so that moles can be properly and safely introduced to Ireland!
