Please support our petition to ban the use of snares
in England. The horrific injuries caused by both legal and illegal snares cannot be allowed to continue.
For more information please go to our 'Snares' page
but please be aware that it contains photographs of
the injuries inflicted by these deathtraps.
Our running costs are over £250,000 per year.
We rely on public support to survive.
Even the smallest of gifts will
make a difference.

Number of animals currently being cared for at Vale: 204
Total number of casualties treated in 2011: 4316
7.30am - 8pm every day.
Unfortunately we are often not able to collect
small animal casualties from you as our staff are needed in the Hospital itself.
We rely on you bringing the animal in to us.
The UK's wildlife faces more problems today than ever before and unfortunately most of these problems are caused by people. A vast majority of the casualties we at Vale treat have
sustained their injuries through coming into contact with humans:
road traffic accidents, domestic cats, fence injuries, mower and strimmer incidents,
habitat loss, building work, new roads, snares, the list is endless.
Some people say that injured wildlife should be left alone, we shouldn't interfere but should
'let nature take it's course'. That would be fair comment if the problems encountered by our
wildlife were 'natural' but very few are, and I believe we have a duty to try to redress the
damage that we are doing.
