The UK government is asking the public to voice their opinions on how to regulate trophy hunting imports and exports, including whether to impose a total ban.
About 2,242 “trophies” from murdered animals were transported to the UK in the past 10 years alone, including species at dire risk of extinction. In response to public outcry over these deaths, the government recently pledged to significantly strengthen wild animal protections, including those pertaining to trophy hunting imports. The proposal has been welcomed by Britain’s Queen Elizabeth, who has reportedly gone fur-free. And an estimated 86 percent of British people oppose trophy hunting, according to a recent Mirror poll.
A total ban on trophy imports and exports is one of four options being considered in the government consultation, which runs until January 25. Should the ban pass, it would be the toughest in the world. While other countries have imposed restrictions on the import of certain species, none have enacted a blanket ban. Such a ban in the UK would send a strong message globally that trophy hunting needs to end.
Add your voice to help push for a total ban of trophy hunting imports and exports in Britain. No matter where you are, you can sign the petition below. Then, please send an email to [email protected] saying that you strongly support Option 3 – a total ban on trophy hunting imports and exports. We must send a strong message to UK’s Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs to treat this issue with the gravity it deserves.

Sign: Call For A Total Ban Of Barbaric Trophy Hunting In The UK

Dommage que ce ne soient pas ces deux vieilles et horribles créatures qui aient été abattues plutôt que ce magnifique lion!
Peaceful and friendly ? Hard to be friendly when seeing psychopaths kill beautiful animals ! Makes me sick !
These humans are sick ! no compassion and no respect for beautiful endangered wildlife. They should be fined and have their hunting licenses revoked ! They are nasty psychopaths who do not belong in any civilized society.
I am all for helping all animals all over the world yes stop all of this cruel acts from suck humans.
These vile slime do not deserve to live on this earth!
Get it together UK. I could shoot a person np, but I could not kill a harmless animal. They are creatures from God.
I strongly support Option 3.
We need everyone to sign this petition to save this beautiful animals it wrong what they are doing
Stop this barbaric practice at once!
End this barbaric practice now!
Without having any value to the local people these animals will be treated as pests and killed as pests plus they will not be protected from poachers by these people since they are valueless. Good job at the attempt to make them extinct
That’s wonderful about the shark fins. Made my day!
Cruelty to animals must stop, we have a long haul ahead of us …which is really sad but we will succeed eventually!!
Wow! What a bunch of tough guys! You actually are proud of yourself’s posing in front of a dead Lion??? You call yourselves men?? You are a disgrace!
Stop alla crudeltà degli animali!!!
Come on people! Surely your IQ is higher than this.! Do your research on how trophy hunting is realy benefitting conservation and dont get pulled along by the uninfirmed crowd. We need the hunting for our conservation efforts. Even if YOU dont like the idea of hunting, at least admit the good it does and thankfully there are people enjoying doing it. The end of hunting will mean the end of many conservation efforts in Africa. What will you say then? Or will you just go on with your life after helping to stop it…. Think people. Get educated. Dont let emotion over rule good common sense.
Yours in conservation
Stop this atrocious game of murder so a mans ego can be boosted.What does this really serve, other than some twisted gratification on the part of the killer. Leave these beautiful animals alone, and YES to a ban on importing their remains into the UK.
These criminal practises need to cease with immediate effect.
Its interesting how my comments are not posted….. To close to the truth.
Yours in conservation
And this barbaric slaughter NOW!!!
I don’t understand how anyone could be so cruel. They are hateful people.
Killing a living being, to take a trophy, is not acceptable. Serial killers do the exact same thing to humans!!! The act is the same, killing innocent, and defenseless humans or animals is not, and will never be acceptable.
Trophy hunters are nothing but psychopath, coward scum. I have more respect for a slug eating my flowers.
Why peaceful comments? These people are killing for the sadistic pleasure of it. I do not apologise for saying these men obviously have a large deficiency in the manhood department or they would not try and subjugate a defenceless animal with a high power rifle. They are not real men. Just killers. And believe it or not they think they are brave.
THESE THINGS FOR HUMANS ARE UTTER AND COMPLETE COWARDS!! THEY CALL THEMSELVES MEN BUT RATHER PIECES OF SHIT AND GARBAGE FOR HUMAN BEINGS. THESE THINGS NEED TO BE PUT DOWN!!! IMMEDIATELY!!! THEY NEED TO BE IRRADICATED FROM THIS EARTH. MOST LIKELY TRUMPS BUDDIES. THEY ARE ALL PIECES OF SHIT IN MY EYES. UTTER AND COMPLETE COWARD BASTARDS!!!!
Do the right thing according to your conscience, if you have one.
Stop cruelty

End this horror. Animals are sentient beings and deserve to be treated with respect.
End this horror. Respect the planet and the creatures who share this planet with us. They are sentient beings, not here for our entertainment or to be killed for some sort of sick pleasure.
Trophy hunting is barbaric and serves no purpose. They care killing off our wonderful species of wild majestic creatures. This horrific practice should be banned worldwide. So, yes, UK go for it and make it impossible for these evil humans to just go out and kill cause they want to…disgusting!!
NO MORE KILLING OF ANIMALS FOR TROPHIES!!!
the airlines and other forms of transit need to stop transporting body parts of the murdered animals..plus when they want to ship they need to be arrested on the stop.
Whats happned to the human race?
What a useless ego boost for humans.. Primitive act!!!! It must stop.
Trophy hunting is disgusting. Imagine displaying the body parts of wild animals. It is vanity and is the result of greed.
Stop it and grow up people!

Trophy hunting is nothing but the murder of our planets wildlife and it must stop. There is no need to go out and hunt an animal in today’s world as it serves no purpose at all. It serves only to boost the ego’s of those small minded individuals who think they’ve achieved something good.
The people are sadistic monsters and deserve to die in the same painful way these poor bull are being killed.

Humans are and will always be the savages and barbarians of the planet earth. Look at our leaders, they are the most corrupt of all the humans. What are we supposed to learn from our world leaders. All other animals are being killed, abused, tortured,….. all by humans who will continue committing atrocities as long as corruption and lawlessness will rule our planet earth.
Please stop these murderers right away.
Don’t allow their sick cruelty to harm one more innocent victim.
Stand up to them.
Don’t be afraid to take a stand.
They are only weak cowards trying to show how manly they are. But they are NOT!
They are useless perverts.
