Wildlife Crime Resources
Wildlife Crime Toolkit
We have pulled together several resources that should help you to raise awareness of wildlife crime both externally and internally. Some of the legislation and directives referred to in the following assets relate directly to English and Welsh law, and will therefore need to be adjusted to suit Scottish legislation.
Download our Wildlife Crime ID Guide outlining the most common examples of wildlife crime and how to identify wildlife crime that may have already happened.
Download our Wildlife Crime Useful Contacts document outlining a list of organisations you can contact for advice on wildlife crime cases – from licensing issues to animal rescue.
Download our useful list of all wildlife crime related Acts and Directives.
Download our Wildlife Crime Training PowerPoint outlining the most common cases of wildlife crime and who to contact for certain issues. This is primarily aimed at call centre staff who might be unaware of wildlife crime related issues and is to be provided along with the Wildlife Crime ID guide and the Wildlife Crime Useful Contacts document.
