Powerful new animation exposes fox cub hunting - narrated by Chris Packham
WATCH NOW
We’ve just released a brand-new stop-motion animation, powerfully narrated by Chris Packham. The film lifts the lid on the grim practice of cubbing – also known as autumn hunting – where hunts encircle woodlands and set hounds on fox cubs, tearing them apart in order to train the dogs to kill.
Cubbing is perhaps the darkest, most secretive part of hunting – something the hunts would rather the public never knew about. That’s exactly why we’ve made this film: to show that this cruelty is happening right now, across the UK.
You can watch the animation below, and it’s also live on all of Protect the Wild’s social channels – please share it with your friends and family to help shine a light on what the hunting industry tries so hard to hide.
Support Protect the Wild - join the fight for British wildlife
Want to support Protect the Wild and see an end to cubbing as soon as possible? One of the best ways you can help us is by becoming a monthly donor or by adopting a fox cub. We’re building a movement to fight for British wildlife and every pound helps us produce more films like this one as well as all of the other vital work we do.
Together we can and we will see the day that this sick pastime is consigned to the dustbin of history and where British wildlife can live free from bloodsports.
Thank you PTW and Chris Packham for helping to expose the vile practice that is cub hunting. The hunters attempt to hide it by referring to it as “autumn hunting”. Shame on them all.
Share the animation far and wide and help expose these evil people for all to see.
Come on Labour, we need a full ban on hunting with hounds now, no loopholes, no exemptions. 🦊
So moving. It is medieval indeed. Thanks very much to PTW and Chris Packham.
