About the event
Trail hunting is being showcased at 30 different locations across the country on this day with invitations extended to the public, media, police and politicians to help create a better understanding about what this lawful leisure activity entails.
The Labour government has announced that it intends to “ban trail hunting” so the hunting community is sending a strong message to parliament, to newly elected MPs and to the government that trail hunting is a legal and legitimate activity and that any new legislation would be unnecessary and unjustified.
Trail-hunting involves the laying of a scent across the countryside which a pack of hounds then searches for and follows using their noses. The trail can be laid by somebody on their feet, riding a horse, on a bike or a combination of any of those methods. Trail hunting simulates traditional quarry hunting and has successfully ensured that hunts can maintain support to retain their infrastructure.
