Northern Ireland says "NO" to Animal Cruelty This page was set up in March 2014 to campaign for a change in the lenient sentences handed out for animal cruelty offences in Northern Ireland.

Whilst our original aim continues to be our primary focus, this page has since evolved into a community of like-minded people, and a forum for people to come to voice their concerns, promote animal welfare, raise awareness of animal welfare issues, and get involved in the issues which concern them.

Informative documentary on the Blue-Green algae situation in Lough Neagh.

Informative documentary on the Blue-Green algae situation in Lough Neagh.

In summer 2023 a huge blue green algae bloom appeared on Lough Neagh and turned 392 square kilometres of water into a toxic green soup. The question is, why ...

22/08/2024

This blue-green algae is affecting every living creature along the veins of water that flow from Lough Neagh.

THIS is what we should be rioting over! The water that provides life to our beautiful homeland has been poisoned as a result of capitalist greed and those in Stormont are refusing to point a finger.

How much longer will we allow this to go on?

REHOMED
💙Bruce💙

This gorgeous boy is two years old and is seeking a new permanent home.

He's a big lad, gentle natured and has grown up around kids. He knows his basic commands and I've been told he's truly a big goofball and a true sweetheart.

Ideally, Bruce is seeking a home with a big garden and with owners who will have the time to play with him and take him on lots of adventures!

If you're interested, please get in touch with Nadine via her profile, which I've link in the comments.

Homechecks etc. always apply.

Thank you,
R 🐾

This awesome gull had everyone on the edge of their seats yesterday! We watched as he tried to play in the wing but clearly was injured.

Great to hear he’s doing well! Some would even say this little bird helped Armagh secure their victory! 😂🧡🤍

You may be thinking you have seen this gull before and you wouldn’t be mistaken!

This Herring Gull had caused quite the stir online after been spotted on the pitch of the All Ireland GAA game in Croke Park yesterday evening. We received a large amount of emails from worried viewers at home who were watching Armagh go head to head with Galway to win the title of All Ireland champions.

He was helped off the pitch by Barry Nolan who then transported the adult bird who just had some minor injuries to us yesterday evening.

They are doing well and will only have a short stay with us before returning to the wild.

Huge thanks to everyone who got in touch with us.

When on patrol in Markethill this evening Police met a good boy named Rambo who was out with his owner for an evening walk. Rambo enjoyed showing officers his tricks and wanted to know if we were recruiting for a new police dog!

If you see us on patrol around Markethill this evening come and say hello or if you need assistance you can find us around the town centre.

RED KITE BIRD 'VIVIENNE' SHOT OUTSIDE NEWRY AND LATER PUT TO SLEEP - POLICE INVESTIGATE

The PSNI are investigating and issuing an appeal for information after a Red Kite bird was found injured in the vicinity of Cullion Road, Mayobridge Newry, on Saturday, 20th April.

The bird was later taken to a local veterinary clinic for treatment at the time, but, it's sad to report, due to its injuries being consistent with being shot, it had to be put to sleep. Following an X-ray on the 22nd April, and later confirmation from Agri-Food and Biosciences (AFBI), it became evident in the X-Ray that the bird had been shot, as pellets were embedded in its wing and neck, including a fracture to its humerus.

A police spokesperson said: “The Red Kite is a large, protected bird of prey, re-introduced to Northern Ireland in 2008 and is a truly beautiful raptor with distinctive markings, recognised by its fork tail.

“This Red Kite, also nicknamed ‘Vivienne’ due to its identifying wing-tags brown-pink 6V, was well-known in the area and throughout the Mournes since it was born here back in 2018.

“At this time, we are asking for information from the public due to offences falling under the Wildlife (NI) Order 1985 as amended by the Wildlife and Natural Environment Act (NI) 2011.

“Police take all wildlife crime very seriously and are appealing to anyone who has information about what may have happened to this protected bird to call us on 101, quoting reference number 1229 22/04/24.

“If you are aware of anyone in the area intent on harming birds of prey please contact police.”

You can also make a report via https://orlo.uk/MD7hb or anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or online at https://orlo.uk/gdH6f .

🚨 PSNI officer viciously tries to kick dog 🚨 Last night, this lovely community servant, decided he would take a kick, with all his force, at a small dog that was loose and was not a threat. What a hero! A real big man! He was probably envisioning his wife’s head as he made the kick. Do not put your trust in this joke of a force, folks. They’re more likely to be involved in animal cruelty than to save creatures from it. Any animal activist who is on the ground will tell you the same. Whether they exploit dogs in their ‘dog unit’ and needlessly put them in harm’s way, ignore reports of wildlife crime, actively partake in dog fighting, fox hunting or lose their cool at small dogs like in this video… the majority only work to feed their own ego.

🚨 CRAIG KITSON 🚨 Ballykelly - residing in the Shackleton Barricks estate - owner of Alpha Gym Craig is a DOG FIGHTER and ANIMAL ABUSER. Craig abuses dogs to make them violent and then headlocks one and chokes it to death when it resists. Craig gets bailed even though the entire population of the north has seen the video and there’s nowhere safe for him this side of the Sahara. Daddy’s a peeler, so he feels like he’s untouchable and can act with impunity. The local community are under the impression that Craig touts in order to carry out his activities with blind eyes from the local police. - There is no place on our island for dog fighters. They’re notoriously hard to close down because they go right to the very top and are often protected by local police officers. We pray that this will be the end of this particular ring. How can we trust the police and the courts to give these animals justice when they fail time and time again? How can we trust the police when they give this freak and his cronies free rein of Ballykelly? - Please note, we do not condone vigilante justice and any actions taken by an individual who may read this post is of their own accord, without influence of NISNTAC nor its admins.

Happy Easter, folks! 🦊

Due to hunger and lack of access to water, animals within Gaza are turning into walking skeletons. It’s important that all animal rights folk continue to support Sulala Animal Rescue - heroes who are working tirelessly to help animals whilst also suffering a genocide at the hands of their occupiers. It’s important that we stand on the right side of history. The truth cannot be hidden in the age of social media.

At what point do we call for scrapping the current dog warden/animal welfare system? This is a scene familiar to most dog walkers. You take your dog out for a walk on lead and are faced with an off-lead dog that’s allowed to roam. This dog’s owners have been reported umpteen times by various residents and nothing done. One surmises that if said owners had let their dog license expire, then the warden would be quick to act. Dogs terrorising a community - nah, that’s above the local warden/welfare’s pay grade, apparently. Why should normal citizens have to approach owners to try keep them in line? Why do normal citizens have to risk their liberty to take dogs out of abusive situations because welfare are too inept to act? Change must happen.

There’s got to be someone out there for our Duke? 😭🥰 Several people have ghosted us about this big lad. Why? He’s amazing! Please only enquire if you’re serious. It’s unfair on all involved. 💔

Our special big lad is still waiting on his forever home 😭 Duke is an amazing big lad in every single way and really would love someone to come and make the second half of his life spectacular - like every dog deserves. Please PM if interested in Duke.

Hunt Saboteurs, NISNTAC and anti-hunt activists stood defiantly tonight outside Armagh City Hotel as Tynan & Armagh Hunt’s ball was taking place. Always and forever anti-hunt. ✊🦊

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢-𝐕𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 A great demonstration against animal testing at Queen's University today. It was wonderful to have both members of the public and other animal rights activist groups stand side by side with us. The reception we got from the general public was incredible positive and we spoke to a few QUB students who are keen to raise their voices from the inside. Total animal liberation now! Smash speciesism!

Anti-Vivisection Protest TOMORROW! 1PM @ Queen’s University front gates Come join us and make a stand for the innocent animals, who are born into a world of pain. We will be their voice! We will be the people to end this cruelty! - Video shows puppies inside MBR Acres, a breeding facility in England. Puppies are displaying signs of psychological trauma.
