However I do think organised displays are the better way.

Plus to control the period they go off and also the times.

Guy Fawkes is the 5th November.
Fine.
Possibly even day after on a weekend.

Not for weeks before or after.

Yes have them as New year comes in.
Not all over the Christmas period

Animals have suffered shock and worse with fireworks going off at all times.

They shouldn't even be sold until a few days before guy Fawkes or New year.
Instead they're on sale weeks ahead.

If you saw my Staffie who is a brave and strong being.
With the distress he was in hearing those for hours on end booming noises
You'd maybe understand the unnecessary suffering put on animals.

What it must be like for other wildlife.
Plus an owner of Horses I know has a nightmare time calming and being there for his near panicked Horses with the damn things going off at all hours for days and even weeks.

I agree Joey, animals always seem to suffer for human entertainment, fireworks are used all year round as we are constantly celebrating something, You can get fireworks that don't sound like a bomb going off, which are nice for the kids etc ,but the really loud ones ?I don't get the point of those, plus some are not responsible with them and cause so much damage and you always get the cruel people who tie them etc to animals, so for me displays are the way to go ,with no need for the ones that are mega loud. My dogs just go and cower under the duvet so one of us will go and lie with them and put music on. My animals are far more important to me than a fizzle and a bang.
