Hen Harriers can’t fight back! They need your help.
In 2015 there were only six successful Hen Harrier nests in England – and that was a better year than many recent ones. There should be c330 pairs of Hen Harrier nesting in England in upland areas such as the Peak District, the North York Moors, the Yorkshire Dales.
Despite being National Parks, these are areas where grouse shooting dominates large areas. Hen Harriers aren’t very sporting – they eat Red Grouse before rich shooters can blast away at them on and after the ‘Inglorious 12th’ of August.
We can’t arm the Hen Harriers but you can fight on their behalf – sign this e-petition to ban driven grouse shooting.

What, has Ronald McDonald got to do with Hen Harriers ? – Was, my initial thought on squinting at the above illustration, prior to putting glasses back on my face.
Is it Wing Commander Henry?
We know this UK government doesn’t care for Harriers armed with talons or guns. It is hell-bent on ridding this country of all that is iconic to it. Also effectively ‘decommissioning’ the NWCU along the way, because it can – If we all let it happen.
We can only dream of Hen Harriers taking to the skies in jump jets, taking-out their evil foe. (And maybe scary Ronald should he be passing) But we don’t have to dream, of ridding this country of this idiot government.
We can fight on the ground, for what is right and just. And for our feathered heroes of the skies.
Keep up the good fight Mark. Your’e an inspiration.
Just realised this would look fantastic on a T shirt.
All wildlife all over the world is minor concern to the powerful and the rich. Anyone stands up for their rights deserves support.
All wildlife is very important all over the world and we should protect the wildlife from the tiny bugs to the big animals. Anyone who stands up for their rights deserves support.
