The best way to address and report a wildlife crime in Kent is to contact Kent Police immediately. Dial 999 if the crime is happening right now or animals/people are in immediate danger. For non-emergencies, use the Kent Police Online Reporting Service or call 101.

How to Report Wildlife Crime
- Emergency (999): Use if a crime is actively happening, suspects are still at the scene, or people/animals are in danger.
- Non-Emergency Online: File a report directly through the Kent Police Wildlife Crime Portal.
- Non-Emergency Phone (101): Call to report past incidents or suspicious behaviour when no immediate danger exists.
Anonymous Reporting: Call Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111 to pass on tips without giving your name.

What Information to Record
- Note the exact date, time, and location or grid reference.
- Write down vehicle descriptions and registration plate numbers if vehicles are involved.
- Take photos or videos from a safe distance, but do not approach suspects.

What NOT to Do
- Do not put yourself at risk or confront anyone.
- Do not touch, move, or disturb the scene, dead animals, or suspected poisoned baits.
