Happy St Patrick's Day to all our friends and supporters
15 March 2013
The Irish Council Against Blood Sports wishes all its friends and supporters a very happy St Patrick's Day 2013. This weekend, join us in calling for protection for the Irish hare and fox. Thousands of hares are netted from the wild every year and forced to run for their lives from greyhounds. Foxes are chased to exhaustion and torn apart by packs of hounds. Together, we can rid Ireland of these obscenities.
Please respond to the action alerts below and become active in the campaign to win a ban on all bloodsports.
ACTION ALERT
Contact An Taoiseach Enda Kenny and An Tanaiste Eamon Gilmore. Ask them to show compassion for foxes and hares and use the Animal Health and Welfare Bill as an opportunity to finally ban cruel coursing and foxhunting.
