I don't want this to turn into a huge debate....but I simply cannot abide fox hunting. The hunts start again today.   I was reading up on Foxes...and there was some pictures of the foxes after the dogs had got them - very disturbing and upsetting, wish I hadn't looked  What a terrible way for these animals to die. |

Eh? I thought it was banned! I can't believe some people that do it think that killing a fox using hounds is humane - that's just an excuse! |

I wonder when the hawk becomes too old, will they kill it too? I abhor people like that |

Me too. Wonder how fun they would think it if they were hunted down?!! |

I remember reading a story in an old Bunty (or Judy) annual about a female hunter going into the mind of a fox that was being hunted...of course at the end her mind was changed and she saw the error of her hunting ways. I wish that would really happen to fox-hunters!

Unfortunately, that won't happen. It's a wonder the fox hasn't become extinct the way it has been culled in the past. It is a pest to farmers I know. But there are humane ways of dealing with them.

Even shooting them would be kinder.

Yeah, fox-hunting is banned now, but it was a bit daft making a law like that without making sure they had a way of enforcing it first; the countryside is such a huge place and the police can't be everywhere.
