Its lazy and ignorant to assume that people who hunt are from the upper classes, you clearly have never met or spoken to people who hunt?

      Dave, you’re so wrong on so many levels, it’s almost comical. The Hounds don’t even go out in the field on Boxing Day, they get taken home after the second meet down at the next pub. There is no killing of any foxes. I have TRAIL Hunted on & off LEGALLY with the Grove for ten years & NEVER seen a fox killed OR Hunted. Thanks for the video though, was one of the best I’ve seen of everyone having a lovely day & us heading off out to enjoy our horses and the countryside!

      Yes because the rural communities not city folk support rural traditions, hunting has been banned but it hasn't saved a single fox. Now they are indiscriminately shot wholesale with rifles, bad legislation had led to a poorer situation for foxes

    All them for one fox! Shocking & horrifying. We feed our foxes down here in Sussex. Feeding foxes is also illegal too. But they are like Seagulls, if you feed one family they keep all the other foxes away. On my street we have 5 houses feeding both foxes & seagulls. We know them by name. We love them, they are beautiful animals when they are well fed. They love us at Christmas & especially Boxing Day Bubble & squeak. I buy one cheapy tub of ham (60 slices for £2.19 @ Sainsburys) & Cheese slices for the seagulls "Knocker" & "Neck In" every week. Next door feed them brown breads. But the foxes, we all chip in to feed them dog biscuits & leftovers. They look fantastic, they only fight if you leave one Lamb bone out, but if you leave two out there is peace & harmony. For the life of me I can't understand how anyone would want to kill them, especially in such a brutal savage way.

    Meet these fox hunters a few time within forest parks on mountain bike trails which not only dangerous but completely reckless.
    In 2005 Quad bikes had entered the forest paths illegally ( new Christmas present then rallied up and down the service gravel road. The Fox hunters had done the same from the opposite side of a 4000 acre forest. I came upon the carnage along with 2 fellow life boat crew cycle buddies.
    The large quads ploughed into the horse riders on a blind bend missing the front riders but slamming into the rear hunters. 2 -3 serious falls 1 horse was put down at the scene by vets and police.
    We lost our permit cycle in the forest after this event all recreation was band in NI until 2012.
    I recall we give first responder treatment to the quad riders, and horse riders stay and coronated the Ambulances into the center of the forest. ( we had keys to open forest road gates upon us).
    NO one either side ever thanked us either, complete narcissist.

    are we still trying to complain about hunts? genuinely the most ridiculous thing ever. i wont dispute the fact the foxes are still being killed, but definitely not by the hunt. hunts are put on purely for the tradition and enjoyment of those involved. before the hunt starts there's one or two runners who go out on the trail with rags and scents and leave a route for the dogs to follow. i understand the argument of the fact that the hounds could still find a fox, but that is highly highly unlikely as the dogs are highly trained and will stick to a pack and the hunt master, so even if a few inexperienced dogs were to find something they are unlikely to leave the pack, the scent is strong and follows a specific trail whereas the scent from a real fox is sporadic and hard to follow, which is why traditional fox hunts would last from early morning to late night, nowadays its usually around 3, i would say maximum 4 hours. I truly hate the idea of foxes being harmed by the hunt, however I research and have experienced the extreme measures taken since the ban to avoid foxes or any other wildlife for that matter being harmed. the hunt are also now banned from wildlife areas such as those owned by national trust, which are the areas animals are most common in as they create ideal habitats for them, and the hunt requires permission for any land they go on which are inspected for the safety of the hunt and wildlife involved, as I understand that some people don't know that foxes aren't everywhere, but if you have less knowledge of the countryside is completely fair and understandable. the main reason some hunts go into towns are for the people to see and enjoy the beauty of the horses, riders, and dogs working in unison. I completely understand why hunt saboteurs protest, you stand up for what you think is right and that deserves respect, however, truth be told, I've never witnessed or heard of saboteurs protesting when government takes country land to build houses and shopping centres. they also lose my respect when they shout and cause fights at meets they instantly lose my respect as they are not only putting the horses, dogs, riders at risk but themselves as well. protests should be safe for everyone, believe it or not sometimes things are resolved better when things aren't aggravated, people are less considerate and more defensive when you come at them attacking. i would like to see a saboteurs opinion of what will happen to the hounds if hunting was banned, as there is a very very low chance of the dogs becoming pets, for starters you would have to separate them from the pack, which i guarantee would wreak absolute havoc, not to mention they are just not suitable pets, they are lovely dogs when they are able to be a group, and they are highly trained to do one thing only, follow the hunt, you cant just take them out of that lifestyle and expect to be able to train them to live in your house and be a sweet lapdog. I've also seen a post by a sab on Instagram i think, were they suggested just let the adult trained hounds out to be strays, obviously not impossible because there are stray dogs but that would be extremely counterproductive as they would stick to their pack and procreate, making it easier for them to hunt and quickly outnumber the foxes. i wouldn't disagree with the fact you may be able to train a hound pup to be a pet, but they are very energetic and need to socialise, so 2 or 3 would take a lot of effort to handle and would lead to owners needing a licence to own them, like what happened with pit bulls i believe, and this would probably lead to extreme prejudice toward the innocent hounds, possibly even causing them to be 'humanely culled', which is just as if not more cruel than foxes being naturally hunted. at the end of the day everyone has their own opinions of what's right and wrong, and that's never going to change, however it is important that we learn about other peoples beliefs and values to be able to fully value your own beliefs and opinions.

      Sheffield Hunt sabs are not nice people. They masquerade as animal lovers while the truth is they are far from it. What you don’t see in those ‘hit’ reports that they so conveniently EDIT together is the constant harassment of the Hunt staff and the riders throughout the day, they trespass across private fields & land in a bid to get their footage, upsetting land owners (I’m sure you wouldn’t appreciate a load of masked people with cameras traipsing through your garden) and film children & the rest of us just trying to have a nice day with our horses. They purposely walk in front of the horses & along side them in a bid to make it look like you are riding in to them (I have experienced this myself). It’s intimidating and quite scary at times. And if you dare to speak up, they film it & plaster it everywhere to make it look like they are being ‘attacked’. They play recordings of the hunt horn to upset the Hounds & call them away from the pack - they led a much loved, hand reared Hound on to a road & got it killed recently. They then make out it’s the Hunts fault and again post it all over social media. They sit outside members of the Hunts family homes by the car full in masks in a bid to intimidate & upset them & again will them film any reaction the get (which as you can imagine would not be positive). It’s all very clever editing & usually ends in a plea for some money to ‘fund’ all of their ‘excellent hard work’. There are two sides to every story - this video is a load of rubbish

    When I was a hunt saboteur, we used to bunk in to the county fairs dressed in wax jackets, flat caps, courdroys, all the gear. When they let people pet the hounds, we would find out the hounds' names (as much as we could)
    When the season started again, it was handy when you wanted to call them off a scent by calling their names.
    BTW, NEVER call them "dogs", it's always "hounds" :)
