As a country boy, I have always been ashamed of those who see the countryside as their personal playground, and their thinking that the wildlife’s sole purpose in being is for their amusement. Coming from poor country folk I have always understood the hunt and shoot for the pot idea, and even now as a vegetarian I feel that’s still part of the country way, but I have never understood the mentality of those who sport shoot and hunt, just for the pleasure of seeing another living creature die. These people are bullies and have no part in real country life, for we all know that to “derive pleasure from the suffering of others, is to be less than human,” fortunately the tide is turning and as more and more people come to understand the value of our wildlife, they will not allow these barbaric medieval practices to continue.

The thing is if it is by 'accident" shouldn't they call off the dogs if they are chasing a real fox????

How can anyone enjoy hunting a fox? I don't see pleasure in it

There actually is a fine alternative to trial hunting. It's called hubertus, no dogs, only fake fox tail, horses and a bunch of riders. One person have fox tail attached to its saddle and others are chasing him. It's traditional, fun and with no harm to animals.

Don't worry I'm on your side ❤❤❤

Yes keep the ban. I'm a country woman and contrary to what they would make you believe not all country people want the hunt. I hate it absolutely and the rules are bent every weekend with more dogs than allowed. It's terribly cruel. This film is correct as to what goes on.

Very well made film. There is no public appetite for cruelty to animals in the UK hence the legislation which is being studiously ignored by hunters. The penalties need to be increased to include custodial sentences, the police and magistrates need to enforce the legislation, and importantly trail hunting needs to be banned.

Thank you for your kind words!

What you must understand about those practices is that in ancient times, when societies were agrarian, the rich people showed their riches to their neightbors/subjects with the food. They offered banquets, hunted wild animals (usually big ones, but there could be also pests for the farmers like rabbits, or foxes since they were seen as elegant animals), etc. All as a way to gain prestige on their comunities. As society progressed into industrialization, riches weren’t so directly linked with food, and the upper echalons of society looked to find some ways to entretain themselves. They adapted some practices of the old agrarian societies like hunting.

This is an amazing piece of film, let's hope it picks up some major traction. Great work 👏
