Live Fox Cub Fed to Hounds - Punish the Killer Now (PETITION)

June 27, 2016
Video footage has emerged that seems to show live fox cubs being fed to dogs.
The footage, allegedly from South Herfordshire Hunt Kennels, in Herfordshire, U.K., shows a man taking a fox cub into the kennels, followed by loud barking.
The man is then shown disposing of the fox cub's body.
This practice is known as "cubbing" and is intended to teach the dogs to kill.
Fox hunting is banned in the U.K. but hunters are allowed to pursue drag hunting -- where hounds follow an artificial scent trail.
Intentionally killing foxes is illegal, but accidentally killing foxes is not.
There have previously been allegations that fox hunting kennels engineer "accidental" encounters with foxes.
Three people have already been arrested and released on bail based on the video.
The kennel is closed and is under investigation.
However, the only way to guarantee that the people responsible are prosecuted is to make it clear that cruelty against animals will not go unnoticed
Please sign our petition and demand the prosecution of the people responsible for feeding fox cubs to hounds.
