I can't believe people take pleasure from hunting down a wild animal with dogs until it is exhausted and tearing it to bits , the death for a fox is rarely quick , the hounds often take some time to kill it .....don't believe the nonsense from the countryside alliance , the league against cruel sports have extensive videos which are too distressing to post online

As far as I am concerned those who enjoy fox hunting are in the same league as the people who go badger baiting or illegal dog fighting
It's not even as if fox hunting makes any sort of difference to fox population numbers. It's just a thrill for bloodthirsty people in the same way that some enjoy shooting animals. I can't begin to understand why someone would do it.
