HUNTING

[Cynical Ninja]

Curious Puddly...when the traditional "Fox Hunt" happened...was it something to where the hunters and the hounds went out and actually hunted the wild fox? Or was it a type of "caged hunt" to where the fox was already captured, and released before the "hunt" began.

Edit: Also..I just love it when the bull takes a piece of the Matador prior to meeting his predetermined end.

Traditionally the fox would always be a genuine wild fox, farmers and landowners (the ones that approved of fox hunting anyway) would inform the leaders of the hunt where they had recently seen foxes on the hunt to increase there chances of getting one to hunt down.

Now they have drag hunts where a fox scent is sprayed onto a big cloth and dragged through the countryside on the back of horse, the hunt then goes out to try and pinpoint the scent and hunt it down.

Many hunts packed up completely proving conclusively that all they were really interested in was seeing a fox being torn to shreds by foxhounds.
