Dorset Police to take a crime report/ animal abuse
on 27 February I filmed a hunt setting dogs onto an active badger sett, it also had several foxes hiding into it.
I reported the incident on the 8th of May. the police refuse to record this as a crime .
Dorset police have not collected a witness statement from myself and have not investigated the incident claiming that i did not bring them sufficient evidence
I believe Dorset police to be bias towards blood sporting animal cruelty and are not acting in a reasonable responsible manner about this incident
details of the wild life crime are written about in the canary

Why is this important?
Failure to report a crime prevents an investigation into the crime and does not prevent a further wildlife crime from being committed again.
