Foxhunting- more than just a hunt. “It is a union of humans and animals in the beauty of nature’s setting. Man is an observer mounted on a horse, the vehicle that allows him to follow and observe the hounds as they ‘hunt’ the fox. The scenario unwinds before the foxhunters’ eyes and ears with the sound of the huntsman’s hunting horn as hounds give chase.” -Master of Foxhounds Association (MFHA) The first record of fox hounds and hunting in America occurred in 1650, only 43 years following the founding of Jamestown. George Washington kept a pack of hunting hounds at Mount Vernon and was frequently joined in the sport by Thomas Jefferson. Hunting parties at Mount Vernon are said to have lasted for weeks on end. The popularity of foxhunting quickly spread throughout the continent. In 2007, 400 years subsequent to the Jamestown Settlement Colony, the MFHA, the governing body of foxhunting in North America, listed 171 registered packs in the U.S. and Canada that extend from Washington State to Nova Scotia, and from British Columbia to the southern tip of Florida. In America, foxhunting is also called ‘fox chasing,’ as the purpose is not to actually kill the animal but to enjoy the thrill of the chase. A hunt may go without a kill for several years, despite chasing two or more foxes in a single day’s hunting. As a rule, foxes are not pursued once they have ‘gone to ground.’ Contrary to many of forms of hunting, American foxhunters undertake stewardship of the land, and endeavor to maintain fox populations and habitats. Hounds are used to hunt many different animals. In various parts of the United States, where foxes are more difficult to locate, hunts often track coyotes as well. #equestrian #horseriding #horsegirl #foxhunting #equine

Some of our team joined @mendiphuntsabs today at a Mendip Farmers Hunt protest. 🦊 Fox hunting is a traditional ‘sport’ in which hunters, usually on horseback, follow a pack of hunting dogs aiming to pick up the scent of a fox, chase them and kill them. 🦊 Fox hunting was banned by the Hunting Act 2004 in England and Wales, and the Protection of Wild Mammals (Scotland) Act 2002 in Scotland. But while these were both welcome and hard-fought pieces of legislation, overwhelming evidence suggests both are either being ignored or exploited by hunts on a regular basis. 🦊 Hunting will NEVER be acceptable. Animal Justice Project supports efforts to ensure the Hunting Act and the Wild Mammals Protection (Scotland) Act 2002 in Scotland are properly enforced and strengthened to remove any exemptions. 🦊 We unequivocally support @hunt_saboteurs and always will speak out in favour of direct action for hunted animals. #fox #foxhounds #foxhunt #huntsabs #animals
