Fatalities

◆ The sad truth about hunting is, it effects a whole range of animals not just the hunted. The foxes, deer, hares that are chased and killed. The horses and hounds that are used, injured and then shot. The family pets that are killed due to uncontrolled hounds running riot. The terrier dogs sent down holes to fight. The foxes held in appalling captive conditions purely reared just to hunt.

◆ Hunts claim that hounds make a quick kill with a nip to the back of the neck. This is totally incorrect.
If you have ever watched a fox being ripped apart by a pack of hounds you will know this certainly isn’t true. The actual death can take some time where the fox is used as a tug of war between the hounds and slowly ripped apart. This behaviour can be observed daily with domestic dogs pulling on a toy.
A study of post-mortem examinations of foxes killed by hounds relieve that foxes died from profound trauma inflicted by multiple wounds to the body and in most cases are disebowelled and slowly ripped apart.

◆ A kill by a pack of hounds is one of the most brutal events to witness and totally unnecessary.
