We are well aware that in 2005 a law was passed banning hunting with dogs. All UK hunting reports from packs about which we write therefore, are mindful of this act and as far as we are aware conduct themselves accordingly. Any reports we publish which took place before 2005 may involve the hunting of various prey but this then was quite legal. Likewise accounts of hunting from certain countries such as America, Australia, Ireland, France and New Zealand where hunting with hounds is allowed might include the death of an animal.
