On November 27th, Glasgow Hunt Sabs were out to witness a gathering of Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire Hunt and sabotage any fox-hunting that may have taken place. There were no confirmed fox kills, but the hounds and horses were suffering in unhealthy and bloody states. The hounds were thin and appeared to be underfed and had sores, cuts and growths on their bodies. A poor horse was still forced to be ridden despite having blood-covered legs.
This is a violation of the animal welfare needs. These animals need to be rescued. It would be very wrong of the RSPCA to just do nothing!
Fox-hunting is also a very cruel crime anyway. It violates the welfare needs of the fox. The fox runs for their life before being savaged to death by hounds. It also isn't the hounds' fault; they have been trained and bred to hunt and kill, and they have been set onto it by the sick hunters.
Foxhounds are sometimes shot at around five or six years of age, to be replaced by younger hounds. This is unacceptable and needs to be stopped, along with the rest of the barbaric and horrible bloodsport of fox-hunting!
Please rescue
