ASHFORD VALLEY TICKHAM HUNT PREVENTED FROM DIGGING OUT FOX BY KENT HUNT SABS

QUESTION-DOES THIS LOOK LIKE "TRAIL" HUNTING TO YOU"?

ASHFORD VALLEY TICKHAM HUNT 3rd November 2018, Plurenden Wood, Bethersden, Kent

Kent hunt saboteurs hear hunt hounds baying in the wood, and immediately rush to the scene, where they find the hunt staff and riders, surrounding an area where the hounds are digging at a hole-hunts call this "marking to ground", where a fox has sought sanctuary after being chased by the hounds.

Unsurprisingly, the "terrier men" are also in attendance, with quad bikes laden with digging equipment and terriers-without sabs present, this fox could have been dug out after fighting with terriers underground and then shot, or in some cases, hunts will "bolt" the fox so that the hounds can chase it further...or in a worse scenario, many hunts are known to dig out foxes, move them to a safe location, feed them, and then release them again at another hunt.

We will never know what the hunt had planned for that poor fox....but what is certain is that the hunt were caught red handed! Utterly shocked, they sit in silence, grinning as they wave their phones about, no doubt to take pictures to present to the police and complain of "harrassment"-ironically from those brave enough to put themselves in harms way to prevent illegal hunting and uphold the law.....and to save that poor fox.

(Note-this is the same hunt we filmed chasing and killing a fox in 2017-   • ASHFORD VALLEY TICKHAM HUNT KILL FOX DURIN...  )
