Stop the slaughter of mountain hares on grouse moorland.

Petition Details

Mountain hares are an iconic species native to the Highlands of Scotland. They are strongly associated with the heather moorland that is managed for red grouse. On the managed moorland they are shot, and poisoned, in the name of preserving the grouse, who are soon to be shot for entertainment.
