"The crown estate is the biggest landowner in the UK and they choose to use this land for animal agriculture and hunting which not only decimate our environment but cause the deaths of millions of lives every year," the organization stated. "It’s time for a new system based on justice and compassion and the royal family should be leading the way."

"Crown land should be used to grow healthy, nutritious food for all and to provide homes for the animals we share this country with," their message continued. "We are demanding that the Queen end the use of crown land for industries which are contributing to the climate and ecological emergency and the death of animals including hunting, animal agriculture and racing."
