And how do you feel about the hunt breeding cubs to kill? Still waiting for an answer to that. |

Oh yes, so you did, nine words!! Why no rage against fishermen? Are they not as vile, evil and hypocritical as huntsmen? Again parhetic selective rage! |

Huntsmen are hypocrites. I already answered that question. |

We may have to wait until the fox becomes close to extinction before we change our mindset. |

Losses like that are heart breaking, and no matter how well you fox proof a coop, it's only a matter of time before it's broken into. (pretty grim for the chickens and lambs) I have no answers except to keep foxes at bay 'somehow'! Another problem with shooting/other methods is that you risk killing a vixen with cubs, leaving them to starve. At least with hunting you have a closed season to help prevent this. |

A bit of trivia for you. |

Frankly, I think all field sports including coarse fishing should be banned, also greyhound racing, ditto horse, tadpoles in jam jars, the list is endless. Why only fox hunting? Other 'sports' are just as bad, but fox hunting is the only one that evokes such outrage - odd that!!! The cynic in me says that it's the participating people, not concerns for the fox that are the issue here, otherwise this very selective outrage makes little or no sense. |

Just sent a message to my MP about this. I think hunting with dogs is barbaric. You can send a message to your MP if you go to www hsi uk, click on, Don't turn the clock back.It is the only way I can do anything about it. This is a way of getting full bloodsports back but by doing it slowly, if the government get this through on Wed. they will bring it back fully over time. |

I bet Cameron is pally with many of the prohunt brigade and that's what is behind this. It's barbaric to kill creatures in such a horrible way. |

Some hunters agree Maggie but many don´t :-( If they did they wouldn´t be trying to overturn the hunting law. |
