Foxhunting Vandals?

If the proponents of continueing foxhunting in the uk wanted
a worse example of why they should be allowed to carry on
with their pastime, they could'nt have done better than the
recent revelations of the hunter who not content with
killing a female fox in the hunt, then went on to feed her
cubs to his dogs!!?
This ( l dont know what to call him )? Has escaped prison
at a recent court case, l dont know how? I expect he is
one of our priviledged classess with a bit of pull in the
heirarchy?
Imo foxhunting sould be banned forthwith despite any
screams of outrage from WHOEVER supports this practise!

Regards Donkeyman!

Re: Foxhunting Vandals?

With you 100% on this one, Donkeyman - and I speak as one who once rode to hounds - light years ago before I knew any better.

It is a cruel enough sport without scum compounding it by feeding the cubs to the hounds. That man should never be allowed near a hound again.

Actually, I thought fox hunting had been banned - don't they have to 'trail hunt' these days?

I saw this on Jeremy Vine's program. It made me feel sick! The cubs were still alive.

I also thought it was banned ST, but from what l hear, some
hunting is still carrying on in isolated cases?
I think the whole thing, including so called drag hunting etc
should be abolished to avoid any confusion law wise!
I am glad to hear of your reformation!

Can't believe that the kennel maid was complicit in this act of barbarity - she should also be banned from working with any animals in future.

Re: Foxhunting Vandals?

Dreadful ! I'm assuming this is the same case that was in court this week. ?

They got twelve months suspended sentence.
Apparently 6 months custodial is the longest allowed for animal cruelty anyway.
I imagine it's an undercover practice that's pretty wide spread.

Time these laws were revised .

It took only once being 'in at the kill' for me to see how barbaric it was. I never hunted again - never will.

A suspended sentence is right - manacled to the wall some place high up and suspended there for six months.
