Another spring newsletter, from the HSA, Howl. The content just keeps on getting better and better. There are reports on hare hunts, badger cull sabotage and stag hunts, the demise of the Oakley Hunt, a review of what sounds like a terrible pro-hunting book, the usual pages and pages of news from the many individual sab groups, a look back at the HSA’s involvement in an anti-fascist mobilisation and demonstration in London in 2013, and a look at the use of drones in hunt sabbing. There’s also a list of organisations which may have been spied on by means of undercover police infiltration between 1892 and 1992, currently under investigation by the Undercover Policing Enquiry. The list includes London Greenpeace.
Of particular interest to me, for obvious reasons, is a piece by a hunt saboteur who also volunteers at an animal rescue. There’s lots of good information and advice, although, as a firm sceptic, I would question the efficacy of the use of homeopathy to treat wild foxes with mange. And a reminder not to do anything to try to tame wild foxes and never to feed them by hand, which is extremely dangerous – for the foxes.
