Viral animation uncovers the shocking mistreatment of foxhounds
Narrated by Chris Packham
We’ve just released our latest animation, narrated by Chris Packham! This 60-second film exposes the shocking mistreatment of foxhounds by hunts and reveals how the hunting world is exploiting these animals in a desperate attempt to protect their cruel pastime.
Groundbreaking research carried out by Protect the Wild earlier this year found a staggering 2,444 welfare incidents involving foxhounds in just the last 3 hunting seasons and that’s what motivated us to create this animation.
I won’t say too much more, I’d rather you see it for yourself.
Since going live last night, the film has already been viewed over 600,000 times, and thousands of people have joined the call urging the Government to deliver on its promise to ban trail hunting.
Please share or forward this email to family and friends, and encourage them to add their names to the petition too.
With thanks to Chris Packham for his continued support and the brilliant Fire Lily Studio for putting it together for us.
