The R.S.P.C.A.'s policy on angling
The R.S.P.C.A.'s policy on angling
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty of Animals is one of the biggest and most well-known animal welfare groups in Britain. As can be seen from the following extracts of their policy on animal welfare, they come out strongly against angling. "The RSPCA is opposed to the infliction of pain and suffering on any animal in the name of sport." "2.1. The report of the Panel of Enquiry into Shooting and Angling (the Medway Report) has proved to the satisfaction of the RSPCA that fish are capable of experiencing pain and suffering. 2.2. The RSPCA believes that current practices in angling do involve the infliction of pain and suffering on fish." RSPCA Policies on Animal Welfa Bloodsports, 1991. * Back to index * More articles Pisces BM FISH, LONDON, WC1N 3XX Tel: 01792 464 176 Web http://www.pisces.demon.co.u Cheerio, |
