Should the RSPCA be leashed ? We say muzzled and castrated !
The RSPCA is one of Britain's favourite charities, defending the welfare of animals in England and Wales.
But does it sometimes go too far?
Founded nearly 200 years ago the RSPCA claims to be the oldest and largest animal welfare organisation in the world. And with the queen as its patron it is arguably one of the most respected.
Funded largely by voluntary donations, it has a vast headquarters in Horesham in Sussex and an annual income of almost £120m.
The RSPCA's sole purpose is to protect the wellbeing of all animals in England and Wales.
But has an institution so trusted for so many years become too powerful at the expense of humans?
One of its many private prosecutions in the last year is that of 93-year-old Ken Bolton. More4 News has been out on patrol with one of Britain's most powerful organisations.
