Looks like another fox hunting prosecution incoming for the Blackmore and Sparkford Vale Hunt. How blatant can you get..
More footage of BSV Hunt illegally hunting a fox from Three Corner Covert, and drone footage of the chase by hounds that ensued. Ben Summersgil, the Whip, makes no attempt to stop hounds at any point. Avon & Somerset Police have requested the footage and are investigating. (1/3)

The Fitzwilliam attempt to use the Falconry Exemption in the Hunting Act. The fact they've been convicted so many times proves it doesn't work. Here's some drone footage and an explanation why.

This video should be shown to every wildlife crime officer in every police force in the country. It shows in detail what @HuntSabs and monitors have witnessed for over 20 years now. It exposes trail-hunting as a absolute lie. @scruffycop @ProtectTheWild_
Damning footage of the convicted Portman Hunt chasing a fox yesterday. From dense brambles, through thick hedges, a vegetable garden, livestock, chicken pens and narrowly stopped from going into Todber Fisheries - this is what they want you to believe is "trail hunting".

Devon & Somerset Staghounds killed this terrified stag after an abysmal day losing the trophy stags they really wanted. In desperation he ran down to the Exmoor Foxhounds kennels and hid. As a gunman went in for the kill he made one final run for his life but succumbed soon after

Portman Hunt riders recklessly using their horses and quad to block a sab on a public footpath. Using spurs on the poor horses to make them ride into people against their instincts. They're only going back to the meet too, they just can't help themselves! All in front of kids too

What a start to the hunting season. Since last Tuesday we've been out six times on three different hunts. Witnessed foxes being chased, been verbally abused, threatened with assault, attempts to disrupt our drone and had two tyres slashed. Nothing changes. @NDHuntSabs

Whether Amorim goes or stays one HUGE issue remains. The sheer volume of shit EVERY United manager inherits & can't get rid off. The clear out NEVER happens so it's always a new manager having to work miracles with a bigger pile of shit

While the Cattistock Hunt were killing yesterday, the Portman Hunt were also doing their best effort cubbing, holding up a maize field trapping foxes inside with their dogs. Thankfully monitors arrived just in time to move them on, allowing this fox to escape
The first cub-hunting meet of the season and here's the Portman Hunt still hunting foxes. Worse still, they are involving young children in this cruelty by having them surround the maize field to deter the hunted cub from leaving. These despicable individuals have sunk to a new

The Cattistock Hunt kill was caught on our drone this morning. The fox was chased into a dense vegetation with hounds and hunt staff quickly surrounding it. The terrified fox eventually bolted out and was engulfed by hounds, possibly a terrier was entered to do this.

Back from the first local fox cub hunting meet this morning at 6.0 am. Usual antics from the Portman, "holding up" surrounding a maize field using kids to join in and terrier men present. One fox seen to safety from the maize after the hunt were warned we would report them if

Another beautiful Sunday morning on the Dorset/ Somerset border, ruined only by the presence of a basset pack out hunting baby hares at the crack of dawn. Thankfully they packed up when we arrived along with @NDHuntSabs.

Dorset and Somerset Bassets packed up by Avon and Somerset Police this morning! Well done to the vigilant locals who called us and police and saved hares. The huntsman is in court in November after being caught at it at the wildlife crime hotspot of Bagber in Dorset.
