Next Wednesday MSPs will vote on whether to protect mountain hares and end their slaughter - I've tabled an amendment to the Animals Bill that would make hares a protected species. One week to build the pressure and win the vote! https://t.co/fAWp1qHjQu pic.twitter.com/hpYegfC3po

Thank you @Channel4News for reporting on the impacts of driven grouse shooting. The more folk know, the less they like it, the greater the demand for change. There’s a fairer future for this land, that delivers many more jobs & doesn’t depend on killing wildlife.

https://t.co/d6wYTNcr32 What a headline! While the silence from @scotgov is deafening, you'd be forgiven for thinking shooting lobby is calling the shots! On 17th June @ScotParl voted to protect mountain hares. The majority of people in Scotland will be appalled to read this.

The ongoing persecution of birds of prey in Scotland has to stop. Today I asked the First Minister when the Scottish Government intend to take action. Scotland should be a haven for wildlife, not a haven for wildlife crime. pic.twitter.com/uvpfInvMPH
