Did anyone read the Independant, I think that what one it was, today?
Splashed across its front pages was something about how Foxes were still being murdered all over britain even though its banned.
I unfortunatly didnt get to read due to uni, but looked a bit detrimental to any feildsports image. |

Since the 'ban':
Numbers of people taking up hunting has increased.
Numbers of foxes being killed by hunts has remained the same.
Numbers of foxes killed by other means has increased.
Number of foxhound packs has increased.
Numbers supporting hunting has increased.
Conversely:
Support for LACS has decreased.
Animal welfare has decreased.
borowed this info from another site :D |

go tell the independant that they are wrong as fox hunting was never banned it was only the use of dogs that was banned. |
