GWCT responds to the latest legal challenge from Wild Justice.

Chris Packham was very careful with his words, yet he still misleads us when he says magpie predation does not in itself cause population declines of other birds.

As 70% of farmland in England has been in some form of environment scheme over the past ten years, it indicates that most farmers are willing to step up for nature. 

Patrick Barkham is wrong to claim that the management of hen harrier broods is “to placate grouse moor owners”.

We respond to a recent piece in The Spectator claiming that grouse moors would benefit from rewilding.

RSPB Vice President Chris Packham is presumably unaware that his own organisation has killed 784 crows on their reserves, to protect the nests of vulnerable species, or he might not have been in such a hurry to persuade Natural England to suspend the legal mechanism that permits them, and other conservationists, to do so.
