The Hunt Saboteurs Association and its affiliated groups have been actively opposing all forms of hunting with hounds since 1963. This means we have over sixty years’ experience of studying hunting in the field and developing tactics to sabotage it.
Chris Packham helps to launch our campaign.
As such, we are the only people outside the hunting community who understand how hunts have operated both before and after the passing of the Hunting Act. It was the HSA who declared within weeks of the ban that hunts had not changed their practices and, of course, it was the HSA who published previously leaked webinars from the Hunting Office that decisively proved that trail hunting is simply a ‘smokescreen’ to cover up illegal hunting activity.
This depth of knowledge and experience means that we are the group best placed to formulate suggestions for an improved Hunting Act which will stop hunts from killing. To this end, we have created a booklet entitled Witness the End of Hunting which outlines what is required to create a Hunting Act that will actually work.
The government is soon to launch a consultation on the Hunting Act, so please use our arguments to formulate any responses you may want to give. You are also welcome to send it to your MP if writing to them at any time.
