Born Free's Senior Wildlife Consultant Ian Redmond OBE reports on the killing of much-loved 'tusker' elephants in Tanzania, and why recent news stories have sparked concern.

Bill to ban trophy imports passes its second stage in the House of Commons.

Born Free has contributed to a report published today that aims to tackle misinformation spread by proponents of trophy hunting.

Every year, trophy hunters slaughter tens of thousands of wild animals, bizarrely claiming that killing rare species is an effective way to protect them. Our Head of Policy, veterinarian Dr Mark Jones, reports.

Born Free responds to the King's Speech on 7th November 2023, which failed to fulfil longstanding government promises for nature and animal welfare.

A future without elephants is unimaginable. Born Free’s new appeal offers a lifeline for one of Africa’s most iconic species.

Efforts to progress a Bill to prohibit the import of hunting trophies from threatened and protected species were thwarted in the House of Lords on 12th September by a few Members who cynically used parliamentary procedure to their advantage.

Born Free is urging supporters to support the bill one last time by writing to Rishi Sunak and Lord True.
