Fox Hunting

[brassedoff]

The Fox hunting fraternity are off again and have a petition to repeal the 2004 act http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/huntingactrepeal/

However there is a counter petition here http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/antihunting/ should you feel so inclined.

Im probably gona get slaughtered here but here we go.
Not all hunts are that cruel! Yes you get some that let the hounds tear the animal too shreds(even im against that) but you do get the odd hunt that finds and kills the animal straight away

Err.. so 9 foxes/hairs/deer undergo a horrific chase and get tortured to death by beig torn apart- but one fox dies of a heart attack during the chase and is already dead when the dogs get to him,- that's ok then??

In the 21st century there is NO justification for a group of men/women in fancy dress to kill animals under the lable of 'sport'. we know animals feel fear and pain. we know the trauma we are causing them. there is NO excuse fo hunting.

I think its a case of each to their own, like that poor fox that is getting chased, in the days leading up to it, it could have been in a field worrying sheep or in a farm yard killing chickens for the sake of it. How many animals get hit by cars and wonder off and take days to die in severe pain?

hunts all started in the golden oldie days when animals like foxes n badgers n stuff started to kill other animals (like nature intended) but the farmers n land owners didnt like this so they started hunting them to cull the numbers of the preditors. But unfortunatly some rich people loved the thrill of the chase too much n its carried on from being a need to being a constant fun thing to do 4 some people
