[Land Rover was set on fire and
left outside wildlife campaigner
Chris Packham's front gate,
the Sunday People reports on its front page.]

[Alf]

Any particular reason why he'd be targeted? or was it just a random bit of criminality?

It doesn't sound random, if they're wearing balaclavas then it looks premeditated. Why does he have enimies who'd do that to him?

He was on every news yesterday
saying Royal Land must be open to the Public.
He Demands it!

[bots]

He has been leading environmental protests, he was at one at Buckingham palace yesterday. So, it's people right to protest back if they so wish, peacefully of course

[michael21]

Yes fire on his big gate my big gate metal harder to burn

Chris Packham has been Live on BBCNewsHD

[Chris Packham says he knows identities of his
attackers after masked thugs torched Land Rover
packed with fuel outside his home while he slept
Chris Packham said he was 'crashed out' in bed
when the explosion occurred
He was alone in the remote country house
in the New Forest at the time
The Springwatch presenter and animal
rights activist has been targeted before
Mr Packham, 60, told the BBC today that
he had an idea who perpetrators were]


[BBC Springwatch presenter - an avid environmentalist
and animal rights campaigner - was targeted
on Friday night by balaclava-clad thugs
who torched a Land Rover (pictured) outside
his home]



[Two years ago, a group that the Mr Packham
is a part of - Wild Justice Group - helped to force
through a change in the law to do with
the shooting of 16 bird species.
Hunters and farmers were infuriated by the move,
who said they were now unable
to cull crows attacking newborn lambs
or stop pigeons stealing their crops - unless they applied
for individual licenses.
The Government later introduced three
other licences that are almost identical
to the one that was banned,
but they don't apply in some protection zones.
The TV star told The Mirror that he has
stopped telling his partner and
step daughter about more of
the recent hate incidents against him,
calling it the 'same-old, same-old'.]

I think that there have been so many disruptive environmental protests that peoples tolerance for them has severely dropped. Setting fire to things is not right, but people are fed up with the protests

[Crimson Dynamo]

Very scary for him

[Livia]

It's terrorism really. I hope thy catch them soon.

[GoldHeart]

This is seriously worrying & scary, especially when it's his private home / outside his property.

I hope something is done about it .
