A "Green and Pleasant Land" But In Reality "The Island of Blood"

  We really have gone back to the 19th century.

Badgers became a protected species after centuries of melecide. Now, under that protection DEFRA and HMG is wiping the species out.





Foxes are being killed by the thousands on UK roads and hundreds are shot every month by 'sportsmen' for 'fun'. The fox population is now at a critical point and may face another extinction (there have been several).

True wild cats in the UK were also killed by the dozens -kittens and adults- as part of a felicide campaign that lasted until they were no longer here. Extinct. 

The solution for wild cats is to introduce European wild cats which, again, are not the true Old species but hybrids and we are introducing them to keep the wild tabby cat alive and roaming the countryside -with hundreds of shooters each week going out killing anything they please under cover of darkness (including pets)Native red squirrels were wiped out by the 1860s and...more were imported (as with the fox, hares, deer and other species to keep the shooting going.

And now this -the full article can be found here:

"Last-ditch attempt to prevent second UK capercaillie extinction

"The latest survey by the RSPB found just 542 Western Capercaillie surviving in Scotland last winter, a severe drop from the 1,114 counted in 2015-2016.

"The critically low number of birds has led the Cairngorms National Park to draw up an emergency plan to save the species, which has suffered due to recreational disturbance and poor summer weather, likely brought about by climate change.


Western Capercaillie could once again disappear from Scotland within the next two or three decades (John Fielding).


"Scotland was home to approximately 2,000 Western Capercaillie just 20 years ago, when its range stretched west to Loch Lomond.

"The remaining stronghold in the forests around Strathspey is under increasing pressure from dog-walkers and cyclists. Andy Ford, the Cairngorms' director of nature of climate change, said that mountain-bikers and ramblers had readily followed voluntary restrictions, while officials are now planning to reroute visitors away from the most sensitive areas.

"Western Capercaillie has already undergone an extinction in the UK. The birds existing in Scotland today are the descendants of birds reintroduced from Sweden in 1837, after the grouse had been hunted to extinction."

Oh well it must be the environment, right? Not people going out shooting these birds. Climate change is being used to swerve the blame away from the real problem -humans (who also caused climate change). There is also a falsehood here. The bird became extinct in 1837 and extinction is forever. All that has been done is import birds to be shot and killed and you cannot re-introduce a species because what you are importing are not the old British birds.





Who is going to watch these newly introduced species 24/7 and 365 days of the year because, like the imported wild cats, they are going to be killed off. Extinct in 1837 (during the 19th century "The Golden Age of Hunting") is extinct. The birds and cats should not be introduced because the UK is not animal friendly and the fact that His Majesty's (who loves to hunt and kill) Government in the shape of MAFF and its successor DEFRA just lost control many years ago when it came to badgers and now automatically pays bounties for cubs and adult badgers to be killed based on very bad 'scientific' data shows that we will lose the badger -it seems almost like a deliberate plan to eradicate the species.

We will loose the badger, the fox and the introduced species will not establish for long.

We should be called "The Red Island" to show that killing wildlife to extinction is still accepted and worst of all, a large number of the public do not care.

Hedgehogs, like the Fox and Badger, Heading for Extinction
