Hare coursing is illegal in N. Ireland so coursers travel south to join up with coursing clubs in the Republic, e.g. Ballymena/Tubbercurry. Join us in urging Irish Government to ban this bloodsport. Micheál Martin Leo Varadkar Eamon Ryan #BanHareCoursing npws.ie/sites/default/…
🐇 What's there to be on the fence about? Contact Labour today and urge them to take a compassionate stance on this issue!

38 hares snatched from the wild, held in captivity and terrorised by dogs at the 2-day #Trim #Meath coursing meeting in October 2021. A ban on this bloodsport is long overdue. Retweet to tell Micheál Martin Leo Varadkar Darragh O'Brien Eamon Ryan to #BanHareCoursing
Time for government to listen to public opinion and ban cruel #HareCoursing which is an embarrassment to Ireland #BanHareCoursing #IrishHare

The Irish Hare should be fully protected from cruel coursing. RT to tell Ministers Darragh O'Brien and Malcolm Noonan T.D. to REVOKE the 2022-23 coursing licence banbloodsports.wordpress.com/2022/07/19/min… #Ireland #AnimalCruelty #BanHareCoursing
Cruelly netted from the wild, held in captivity and forced to run for their lives from pairs of greyhounds. The majority of people in Ireland want barbaric hare coursing banned. Shame on Darragh O'Brien @NPWSBioData for granting a 2022-23 coursing licence banbloodsports.wordpress.com/2022/07/19/min…

⚠️🐦 Most of the birds on the open season shooting list are amber- and red-list birds of conservation concern. Retweet to tell Malcolm Noonan T.D. Darragh O'Brien to immediately remove these threatened species from the list and protect all birds from shooters banbloodsports.wordpress.com/2022/09/20/min…
⚠️🐇🐦⚠️ Ministers Malcolm Noonan T.D. and Darragh O'Brien are allowing cruel coursers to net 1000s of threatened hares from the wild and use them as live bait for dogs + allowing shooters to blast red-list birds of highest conservation concern out of the sky #BiodiversityCrisis
