Animal welfare campaigners are urging the Government to end the use of snares in England after polling suggests the public would support a ban.

Certain types of the hunting devices, which catch animals such as foxes and rabbits around the neck like a lasso, are legal in England but not Scotland or Wales.

Labour pledged to ban snares in England in its general election manifesto last year.
