About Keep The Ban
Keep The Ban is a non-profit organisation campaigning to end wildlife persecution. Founded in 2015 the group seeks to educate the public about the realities of what really goes on in the British countryside. Keep The Ban is currently calling on major landowners and decision makers to end the licencing of so-called ‘trail hunts’, and released footage this year showing the Duke of Beaufort Hunt shooting dead their hounds (the first time this routine practice had ever been captured on film).
The mission of Keep The Ban is simple - to end fox hunting, to expose those who abuse and persecute wildlife, and to ensure a compassionate future for wildlife.

I have a visiting fox who I put food out for in my garden in Bath every evening. I am not a violent man, but woe betide anyone who tries to harm him.

[@Historynerd1900]

Oh my lord this reminds me of a time where two foxes where in my garden when I was little and had a litter of foxes in a bush 🥺 so cute

[@OddSpaceWarriorCats]

Question, if hunt saboteurs spray scents to throw off dogs, wouldnt that throw off other wildlife aswell?

[@Mr.Afto.n]

​@@OddSpaceWarriorCats probably

[@AlexanderTheEvenGreater]

@@OddSpaceWarriorCats It certainly causes the huntsman to lose control of the hounds, causing them to run across busy roads and railways and potentially end up chasing wild animals that the huntsman was trying to stop them from chasing. You know, because it's illegal! Oh dear. ;-)

[@EcIendo]

Aw

[@pussiboos21t]

If the hunts are not interested in hunting foxes, why does the trail need to be fox scented..........

[@Clown_Coon_Army]

EXACTLY, this stuff is cruel

[@AlexanderTheEvenGreater]

Because if you try and use a different scent, the hounds will find it less exciting than a real animal-based scent, and will be more likely to follow a real fox (or other wild animal) scent if they come across it. ;-)

[@Clown_Coon_Army]

@@AlexanderTheEvenGreater Alright that makes since but the problem is they aren't accully born wanting to kill foxes. They are trained that way. Trial hunting should stop anyway. If hunting with hounds didn't happen it wouldn't be a problem

Remember it was not until 1978 that hunting otters with dogs was made illegal. Deriving pleasure from killing/suffering - however indirectly - is plainly and patently immoral. Full stop.

[@AlexanderTheEvenGreater]

I am strongly pro-foxhunting, but I do agree about the otters. They were and still are endangered and rare in most areas and no animal should be hunted if it will jeopardise the species' future. We need to be hunting mink instead. And don't start on animal rights about that one; it was animal rights extremists who released the mink in the first place. ;-)

​@@AlexanderTheEvenGreater Can I ask why you are pro-foxhunting?

[@AlexanderTheEvenGreater]

@@GuywithaTrexskullonhishead I keep replying and KZbin keeps deleting my reply. :-(

[@AlexanderTheEvenGreater]

Basically, hunting is the only method that selectively culls weaker foxes but lets the fittest animals escape. This is called "survival of the fittest"* and no other method of control I'm aware of does this. All other methods cull perfectly healthy, breeding age animals indiscriminately without giving them a chance to escape. This can be detrimental to the population. Source:- Charles Darwin. ;-)

I did a presentation on fox hunts (why they are bad, how they still get away with it etc) for my English speaking and listening mock earlier this year. A lot of my class were really shocked to find out what’s actually going on, and were very interested to find out more! I was happy to find out that I wasn’t the only one in my class who was disgusted and disappointed in these people that still hunt them! Great animation and Chris narrated it very well.

I've never ridden a horse but 3 times I've gone out in the morning to feed flocks of 30+ chickens & ducks to find every single one beheaded for no other reason than foxes are blood thirsty bastards. The foxes go through or under the netting and aren't put off by dogs. I've lost multiple geese and turkeys too, so despite not liking the snobs on horses. I haven't the slightest worry about a fox dying by the sword.

@@bigverybadtom 🤔 They go under it Tom, country foxes are not as well or easily fed as town foxes and are as such more determined and intelligent. You wouldn't mind the odd bird but they get a blood lust and massacre anything that moves. Dogs don't keep them away, spreading human urine about doesn't. They used to rough and tumble under my bedroom window! They are not a simple pest because they are as bad as an arson attack, this is why their numbers have to be culled to keep them from not having enough to eat from their natural food chain. That food chain of smaller animals also need protecting from top heavy predation as well.

[@michaelfifecook9220]

As a country boy, I have always been ashamed of those who see the countryside as their personal playground, and their thinking that the wildlife’s sole purpose in being is for their amusement. Coming from poor country folk I have always understood the hunt and shoot for the pot idea, and even now as a vegetarian I feel that’s still part of the country way, but I have never understood the mentality of those who sport shoot and hunt, just for the pleasure of seeing another living creature die. These people are bullies and have no part in real country life, for we all know that to “derive pleasure from the suffering of others, is to be less than human,” fortunately the tide is turning and as more and more people come to understand the value of our wildlife, they will not allow these barbaric medieval practices to continue.

[@shama6394]

Yep, growing up in the countryside they were a menace to villagers as well as wildlife, charging around walking paths, damaging hedgerows, acting as though they have some sort of feudal title over everyone and everything - their "venerable countryside tradition" is a sporting business for a minority of toffs and paid lackeys hiding behind silly outfits and horn tooting.
