FOR the greater part of my long life, I spent living on the edge of the wonderful New Forest spending a lot of my spare time trying to help the various anti-hunting organisations.

I am still amazed that so-called country lovers enjoy watching or taking part in the hunting of our wild animals.

What I would like to see are these idiots put in the same position as animals like the hare, fox, etc, and hunted to death.

You know, I am still amazed after watching their activity that a human being could get pleasure out of such activity.
