## Resource

Scotland has officially banned deadly glue traps, imposing fines up to £40,000 or a year in prison for anyone caught using, selling, or possessing them. These inhumane devices cause horrific injuries and slow, painful deaths for countless animals — from bats and mice to seagulls and magpies — and have been a long-standing target for animal welfare advocates. The ban, enacted last year as part of broader wildlife protections, sends a clear message: indiscriminate cruelty won’t be tolerated. This landmark move reflects Scotland’s growing commitment to compassionate wildlife management and ending unnecessary suffering.
