In this session we will peel back the shroud of secrecy and reveal the true involvement of serious organised crime in every day animal welfare. From ear cropping and co-ownership to fertility clinics and unlicensed breeders. We will reveal the presence and influence of organised crime groups in animal welfare and the interactions that we are all unwittingly having with them on a regular basis. We will look at practical steps that the profession can take to help educate, inform and disrupt the activities of these organised criminal groups. Finally, we will look at the work being done by enforcement agencies from the RSPCA right through to the National Crime Agency to stamp out organised animal abuse.
