Would the hunters still be interested if the dogs were muzzled therefore only allowing the fox to be flushed out and not ripped to pieces?

Andy Baalham good point sir

I'm stunned at ridiculous their argument about hunting foxes to save livestock! How big are these foxes they're talking about? I understand a fox getting into a hen house and eating fowl, but a lamb (upwards of 300 pounds) is generally far larger than a fox (24 pounds).

One has too much money and don't know what to do with it so they kill defenceless animals. WHY? THIS IS BARBARIC.

Exactly, the poor little things have a very short life and a horrific death. All for farmers profit. The same as the poor Badgers being murdered, it's to save farmers money, they are willing to make an entire species extinct to line their pockets. Disgusting. Then there's the government giving permission for a Beagle breeding farm in Yorkshire to send the puppies to labs for testing. It goes on and on and makes me ashamed to be human, if only we could make them see what they're doing.

How would the Tories like it if a bunch of teedagers in hoodies started to flush out foxes in towns using staffies, trespassing across gardens etc. There would be out-roar!

Well done Brian!! Fox hunting is barbaric and should be abolished completely! It has never been a sport in the States (that I'm aware of) and we haven't been overrun with them! You should be ashamed of yourselves!

Likely as not being filmed in his back garden!

Keep up the good work Brian May

Don't kill them. Don't flush them out. Leave them in peace to go about their business as nature intended.

How do you think foxes die in the wild? I will tell you they get killed packs of coyotes or even wolves. It is going to happen to them that is the way of the wild is no different from when hounds do it and it is food for the hounds. Foxes on average will kill 700 animals in their life and guess how they kill their prey by biting them and killing them in seconds just like the hounds. Foxes also kill dogs, cats and newborn livestock.

Stop trying to make it about the poor lambs. David Cameron has been on the news saying how he used to ENJOY hunting as a "sport" all that bull about "practical management". They enjoy seeing the torture. You keep telling yourself that Owen Paterson, you evil, evil man. As Brian May (the LEGEND) said it's an excuse and it is a criminal act. Soon you'll be doing it to other "aggressive" animals, to what end?

+Scatty C Absolutely. If they were so concerned about "practical management" then the way to go is livestock guardian dogs to prevent the foxes from causing any harm. That, however, would ruin their "fun."

Don't kill animals unless you're attack and need to defend yourself and family and friends or for your food .

Hunting bullshit

Paterson , mouthpiece for the fox hunting cult.

Lo de "matar" y peor aún "torturar" por deporte o de forma recreativa, con la vieja excusa de la amenaza por superpoblación y otras incoherencias dentro de un mínimo decoro y coherencia darwiniana, in fact, es una aberración en la naturaleza. Creo que ningún otro animal que no seamos los humanos lo hace. A este respecto, se me ocurren dos observaciones que me extrañaría mucho que sea yo el primero que las vea, pero las comento igualmente: Está claro que una cosa son las leyes de un país o de otro, que siempre han ido mejorándose con el tiempo y han ido añadiendose cosas según avanzaban las épocas y las formas de vida de las personas, y otra cosa es ya el "poner una línea" sobre dónde está lo bien hecho o mal hecho (en un contexto de un hipotético "vacío legal") De una forma ética de verlo, casi todo el mundo probablemente estaría de acuerdo que matar un animal para comer es una cosa (o venderlo para que otros coman poder vivir el que lo vende y el que lo compra), y matar a un animal o otro ser vivo sin necesidad ninguna, pues esté peor. En mi opinión, torturar es peor que matar. Que esté contemplado en el código penal o no lo esté, a mí me la trae al fresco para opinar que es peor, porque para eso podemos todos opinar, obviamente. Por otra parte, creo que en la historia bíblica esa de Caín y Abel (que a mí me gusta traducir al inglés como CANT & ABLE) (SINGABLE) Se refería a que lo que estaba mal era el sacrificio del cordero "para ofrecerlo como ofrenda". Por eso era "CAN'T", y el otro era "ABLE" Pero no era tanto por el ser vegetariano, (porque en realidad también tuvo que "matar" vegetales, aunque en aquellos tiempos no se supiese aun que los vegetales no sienten dolor...). Yo creo que la moraleja de esa historia es más "señalar a Caín" como que eso es lo que "no se podía hacer", que señalar a Abel como que "eso es lo que se debía hacer". Y resulta que , (oh milagro...), en el islam tienen un concepto muy parecido que se llama "Halal". Es una palabra que utilizan, como podrían utilizar otra para referirse al mismo concepto, pero de la manera en que yo lo interpreto quiere decir algo así como "correcto" (able, opcionalmente). No es tanto el asunto de comer cerdo o no comerlo, que eso pudo ser por muchas razones en su época, como el más bien el "no matar por matar". Si es para comer se justifica. Si es por el placer de matar no. Y de torturar, ni lo comento porque me parece tan obvio que es aún peor que me parece una vergüenza tener que perder el tiempo en argumentar los porqués... Y esta es mi humilde opinión a este respecto sobre el maltrato animal. Y todos los demás, ¿qué opinais? 🤔

What I do not understand is why, if "foxes" are killing so many lambs (20 or 30 or so?) the farmers don't employ livestock guardian dogs to protect the flock and prevent predation from foxes or any other animal. Livestock guardian dogs have been used for centuries to guard flocks and they are still being used in many countries to great effect. Wouldn't it be better to prevent predation from occurring rather than supposedly losing 20 or 30 lambs to foxes (if that is actually the case and not due to other causes) and then calling out the fox hunters to hunt a fox (and maybe not the fox or foxes presumably responsible for the predation) so that their dogs can rip the poor animal apart...and probably kill a few pets and maybe even some sheep if they get out of hand?

Brian May, the rudest most obnoxious person there is. Why does he constantly interrupt when someone is talking.Then there's certain hunting terminology, i.e. blood hunting, that's a new one to myself. Doesn't he realise that he's making himself look a right buffoon.If one doesn't know anything about a certain subject it's just the best solution to keep ones cake hole shut!
