  Ban all snares and traps

  I know the debate goes on about the alleged link between badgers and TB in cattle, but nothing excuses the use of these inhumane snares. They should be banned. And banned now.

  Terrible to see these pictures which remind me of some of the similar cases I've seen in the surgery over the years. There is no place for these horrific devices so I wholeheartedly support the petition against snares.

  Should of been banned a long time ago, its horrific and very sad. Im sure in this day and age there are plenty of humane ways if needed!!! Cant believe such cruelty goes on!

  They are a cruel way to kill randomly- around the neck may be quick but anywhere else such as a leg or the thorax is slow. They are not necessary to control foxes for instance where shooting is very effective.

  This practice is thoroughly disgusting and a ban is long overdue. They cause immense suffering and this cannot be allowed to continue.

  Why are these ancient practices still used?

  Horrific and unfair, snares give me goosebumps.

  Snares are used by people who have no understanding of the pain and distress that they cause evil things must be outlawed

  Snares should have been banned a long time ago. They cause such horrendous cruelty and must be banned. It's barbaric and insane. Is the government that ignorant... everyone get behind this and show your support. This must be stopped!!

  Ban them, they cause horrific injuries

  If this country cannot ban these there is something very wrong, nobody can justify the use of these.

  Snares are evil. Not sure why some are still legal.

  Can't really believe this even needs debating. Only an idiot could think that snares should not be banned !!
