Think he's making a point that foxes do kill sheep as the antis claim this is incorrect, it's okay for you Irish lads but over here we're not aloud to hunt them with lurchers

Could you show me ANYWHERE in the hunting act of 2004 where its says its illegal to take a fox on the run with a lurcher or any legislation that stipulates this please.

Hunting any wild mammal with dogs is illegal unless there's a specific exemption in the Hunting Act 2004 (like there is for rats and rabbits), there's no such exemption for fox so it's illegal. Simple as that.

Wrong son...its illegal to flush a wild mammal with more than 2 dogs... ie hounds.. its not illegal to be on permissioned land with a single long dog patrolling for predators in protection of stock.. fox breaks lurcher dispatches...perfectly legal! Stick you to canvassing for the party who wants a total ban on all fieldsports...including fishing.

You'll have no problem quoting the relevant section of the legislation then?

Also there is an exemption for fox.. and the exemption is you use the most humane method to dispatch that fox with as little distress as possible... if he bolts out of a scoot hole..livestock or gamebirds in the immediate vicinty.. long dog will catch him on the run and dispatch nearly by impact..no fighting like you antis think... couldnt use legally owned firearm because your there too protect stock not shoot it..

The exemption for use of dogs below ground in the protection of birds for shooting specifically states the fox must be SHOT as soon as possible after bolting...

 

Have you actually read the legislation? :hmm:
