Happy St Patrick's Day to all our friends and supporters
17 March 2012
The Irish Council Against Blood Sports wishes all its friends and supporters a very happy St Patrick's Day 2012. Today and over the coming weeks and months, please join us in pushing for protection for the Irish Hare species. Thousands of hares are netted from the wild every year and forced to run for their lives from greyhounds. Together, we can rid Ireland of this obsenity.
Please respond to the action alerts below and visit our Ban Coursing Page for more information.
