I don't know much about this subject but is it just thoroughbred Horse Racing under attack by animal rights campaigners.
Does it include eventing, dressage, polo, p2p, etc. I know hunting has been under attack for a long time.
I'm not entirely sure where this is heading, in United Kingdom that is !!! You already have Horse & Hounds chasing decoy scents, and greyhounds chasing a Duracell Hare on a lure. Next they will have remote controlled robot jockeys on Race Horses.
Hmmmmmm ......

Unfortunately horses and hounds are not chasing decoy scents. They are still actively (and illegally) hunting. It was on the news tonight apparently, I have not seen it so cannot comment, just saw it on social media earlier.

If this is true, you really do wonder what makes some people tick, how their time is spent deliberately inflicting suffering on another sentient being. There are some despicably cruel and worthless pieces of humanity.

Then there is the opposing view (which I don't share) that foxes are pests for livestock owners and killing them in this way is legitmate.
I do wonder how you control the fox population but perhaps that question is straying from the thread already.

I think no-one on here would willingly watch horse race knowing a horse will come crashing down and try to recover with a clearly broken leg. It's a tough one.

That's an interesting tweet from Chris PACKHAM, but sadly hardly surprising.

I got caught up in a hunt in the Lake District and it was all very unpleasant.
The braying of the hounds, the extraordinary wealth deployed to kill a fox.
The fury of the anti-foxhunting protesters.
It was flipping chaos.
No debate just madness on both sides.

I to have a shocking story of Horse and Hounds with Field Masters directing Badger bating, it's true.

I'm not joking. The road was blocked by horses and protesters on foot and in vehicles, mostly the latter, you just had to sit there and let them pass and hope.
Fox hunting is a curio that I don't like very much. Must be a better option in the 21st century? Foxes are excellent opportunist predators. But so are rats. And indeed humans.
