Stop the Poisoning of Rabbits on St Helena Island.

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

St Helena is a small Island in the South Atlantic Ocean. Part of the Overseas Dependent Territory.
Pindone causes pain and suffering to rabbits and takes up to 14 days to become effective.
This is cruel to the rabbits, we need an alternative.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This is the responsibility of the Government and Legislative Council of St Helena, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition asking the UK Government to put pressure on the Government of St Helena about this issue, if that's what you want to happen.
