Ok, i have just been on the countryside alliances website checking the news when the 'animal rights activists' sickened me yet again. Hear is the report:
Bloodhound puppies killed after animal rights extremists break-in
Tuesday, 22 March 2005
Five bloodhound puppies have been killed following a break in to the Southern Shires Bloodhounds** kennels near Andover.
Animal rights extremists broke into the kennels on Saturday night, releasing all the hounds including a bitch with puppies at foot. Five out of six of the litter were found dead by kennel staff early on Sunday morning.
Joint master Mark Winchester commented: "This latest attack goes to show that this has got absolutely nothing to do with animal welfare. Whoever is responsible, and we believe it was anti-hunt activists or animal rights extremists, have acted through blind prejudice. Saturday's attack is yet another disgraceful display of cowardice and ignorance and shows the total disregard these people have for the welfare of animals.
"The amount of abuse we have to tolerate from anti-hunt activists on a regular basis, even out on hound exercise, is quite astonishing, and the cruelty and stupidity behind this latest incident is beyond belief."
Ends...
Notes to editors
**Bloodhounds do not traditionally hunt live quarry. The Southern Shires Bloodhounds hunt the "natural scent of mani think what we all want to say is what 'complete and utter bastards'. They make me sick...so heres a message to all you anti-bastards:Oh what a pity, Oh what a shame, Someone is trying to ban Country Sports again. Why must they interfere with the running of the land When the countryside is something they just don’t understand?
But we know the glory of the countryside; The glory of the beasts there that swim and run and fly, It’s us who preserve the woodlands, the rivers and the hills, And if they’ll only let us then we always will
‘Cos we are the guardians, the keepers of the land, And we know what would happen if country sports were banned. Who’d replace the management, and care that we provide? It would mean the raping of our countryside.
‘Cos the environment needs management each and every day, And we’re the ones who do the work, and we’re the ones who pay. For landscape and wildlife of all sorts, We owe them all to Country Sports, we do, We owe them all to country sports.
We know the glory of the countryside; The glory of the beasts there that swim and run and fly. It’s us who preserve the woodlands, the rivers and the hills, And if they’ll only let us then we always will.
And if the antis ban us, you can be quite sure, That they won’t bother to do the work that we have done before, But the trees will still need planting and the hedges must still be laid, The moors will still need burning and the bills must still be paid.
Their lack of understanding is a national disgrace, For what they would destroy could never be replaced. For landscape and wildlife of all sorts, The future lies with Country Sports, it does, The future lies with Country Sports
