A hunting group and a Warwickshire man have appeared in court charged with hunting a wild mammal with dogs, after a fox died.
Warwickshire Hunt Limited and 24-year-old Benjamin Halsall from Shipston-on-Stour pleaded not guilty to the charge under the Hunting Act 2004.
Coventry Magistrates’ Court was shown video footage filmed by a hunt saboteur during an incident in the Idlicote area of Warwickshire on 9 October 2023 when it is alleged a pack of hounds was involved in the death of the fox.
The case is listed for two days and is expected to conclude on Monday.
LAW BREAKERS????????Yet again breaking the law and murdering innocent animals, why the hell are they not treated like murderers because that is what they are. Lock the bastards up not ridiculous fines.
