What the petition asks
Make it illegal to practise culls by shooting within the United Kingdom. Ensure that humane methods of wildlife management are made law.
The Government should be ensuring the wellbeing of all wildlife within the United Kingdom. Culls of all kind should be replaced by humane methods of wildlife management and this can only be ensured by a change in the law.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about culls, but it's not clear if you want the Government to ban all culls, or just culls that involve shooting.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what ban you want the Government to impose.
