Well I don’t know about anyone else, but seeing men who are ready to tear each other’s throats out over the honour of a woman squaring up to each other and calling each other ‘babe’ is exactly what I was hoping for when the new swear filter was introduced!

I could not punch my way out of a soggy paper bag nowadays so I kept out of it . I respect anyone's views on this emotive subject and like ( albeit from a keyboard  ) both the combatants for their knowledge and content . It is a bit uncomfortable listening to the grrrr . I hope they can bury the hatchet ( not in each other ) and move on .

Yet my father always said the hounds on the fox was one of the most efficient ways to despatch the fox.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd have thought that a head shot right between the eyes would be considerably more humane, should the dastardly deed need done, than being ripped apart by dogs.

 

That having been said, I've been asked both for permission for a hunt to go through and permission to go after foxes with rifles and refused them both.

 

We don't let lambs out at night in the spring until they're able enough to fend for themselves, and the chickens are closed in every night anyway so we do our best to co-exist with them rather than kill them.

I am sure it does if the shot placement is perfect.  However, most conscientious hunters don't go for a head shot as there is more chance of error or a jaw shot which would stop the fox from eating and starving to death.

 

What is more humane, a swift bite to the neck and guaranteed death or a slow death due to not being able to feed?
