Following outrage at proposals to reinstated fox hunting as a ‘sport’ in the UK, the majority position on the topic is pretty clear: England does not want fox hunting to return.
In a distressing clip, one woman puts her safety on the line
The video- shared by Leon Vegano Animal Sanctuary- has now garnered over 300,000 views and been shared thousands of times on Facebook.
Alongside the clip, the sanctuary wrote (translated from Spanish): “UK activists come every weekend to sabotage fox hunting.
“In this chilling video you can see a woman last minute saving a fox that was already being hunted.”

They then added: “Hunting is murder! Help us keep saving animals.”
Traditional fox hunting was banned by the Labour government in 2004, with the Hunting Act coming into force in February 2005.
Despite this, the League Against Cruel Sports alleges that unlawful hunts are still taking place.
Fox hunting still takes place in countries abroad, but in the US some hunters chase other animals such as coyotes instead of foxes.
