Yes, it's Beaufort, Yate way, I think.

Don't know I was just thinking hunt riders still ride as badly as they did back then!

YeaH

Yea & not for the better

@Bessie Hillum foxhunting is illegal perverts

Ponies 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 no such thing as mini horses

Shetland ponies, I say.

@Bessie Hillum I'm willing to bet that the poor thing is scared out of his mind. His fate was sealed and delivered that day.😢

@Bessie Hillum 😂...brainwashed idiot? Did my statement about the fox being scared warrant such an insult? And if it did ...well it takes one to know one. ✌️

@Bessie Hillum Hey booboo, sorry I'm just getting back to you. I live in Las Vegas. I don't know much about the English countryside but it's beautiful. Do you live in England?

@Bessie Hillum u frigging weirdo

@Bessie Hillum bullshitter Tory Bessie Bunter

stupid people, what do you mean brave, they're literally chasing a helpless fox around!!!

bcgrote foxes never have been anywhere near extinct.

Bcgrote--the reason the beagles look different from the breeds of today is that they are not beagles; they are English Foxhounds. The foxes are nowhere near extinction and are real problems to farmers, who invariably lose lambs, chickens, and other livestock to the vulpine predator at considerable monetary loss. You don't sound very informed, nor do the other critics I have listened to.

Sport? Using a pack of dogs isn't sport-like. Bring back BOW HUNTING!

@@kenken8765 The problem is, you using a bow and arrow or even a gun isn't natural. It doesn't let the stronger and healthier animals to survive. On the other hand, hunting with dogs allows the healthy foxes to survive, and the weaker ones be killed. Natural selection.

Are you talking about the fox? They've never remotely been close to extinction.

Then came the great invasion after the year 2000 of uncontrolled effluent.

People were far more curtain twitchy and gossipy because they had nothing else to do...

@@zogworth Disgusting and inaccurate comment. In those days our ancestors and relatives had a LOT to do merely to keep their jobs and put bread on the table, then sacrificing their lives in the trenches, sea and air. No social welfare then.

@@maxwellfan55 in which Maxwell proves he's never actually spoken to an old person.

@@maxwellfan55 as a fun learning activity, go and look up how many passages there are in the Bible saying to not gossip and mind your own business. People don't really change.

You’re right! I’m, off to kick a hedgehog like a football.

Nothing was taken as I see it. Purely entertainment from before the time when we all became afflicted with ball-sports disease.

Pathetic realy , the torfs fun day out ... cruel selfish people, perverted getyin a kick so many onto a tiny fox , pure evil & cruel

@@DL-fi5cc lmao someone's a bit angry

Foxes are allowed to breed in Covers..Plus, if foxes get your chickens, your fences are clearly not fox-proof. {our Aunt kept horses and chickens and ducks...but her enclosures were such foxes couldn't get her birds. Plus they were checked every day. She died this year aged 101, and always said no excuse for foxes getting in to a hen enclosure, but it means putting effort in to making good strong fences, and shutting birds away in coops at dusk.

"Better classes" - do English people really think like that? " Foxhunting --- The Unspeakable in pursuit of the Inedible"

@@susantunbridge4612 the snooty Tory Conservative classes , cruel arrogant bestial group of people

U should stop lickin your masters bumhole ....

Those who know nothing will believe anything. Absolutely no shortage of foxes, coyotes, or bobcats here.

@@wadepatton2433 plenty of human vermin too

They would have been regular..Beaufort is/was an expensive hunt to follow, and these people would have hunted regularly, but the forward seat is far, far better for a horse as it follows the movement far better than the oldskool style .

Then, as now they would have needed the permission of the landowners and would make good the fences. But this hunt is owned by the Duke of Beaufort who is also major local landowner so not likely to be a big deal.

Mithalwen Good to know

These arrogant creeps do what they want

As happens today, the walls and fences would have been mended later that day and the next day.

joedeep130535 Oh certainly! THAT'S why foxes have been extinct for some 90 yrs. all due to this hunt back in 1914...oh, man's inhumanity to man!!

@Simon Wren Absolute bollox

Hacklebernie Grundsau Foxes are not extinct, it exist other countries with foxes also, you fool.

WTF?! The fox has NEVER come close to being extinct in England.

All the drags would take the dogs on nice walkies

People go for hunting tho

Of course they r foxhunting , it's the nasty Tory foxhunting perverts avin a fun day chasin a tiny fox to its death for perverted snooty pleasure....

Have you ever seen the terror and agony a fox will do to a coop of chickens? A fox will rips the heads off all of them, and take one home to eat.

@@lindaross4331 The chicken owner is to blame...Our Aunt farmed and kept horses and chickens and had good, stout coops and secure free range runs for them. Of course foxes will kill, it is up to the chicken {or rabbit} owner to ensure the animals are safely kept. which means proper fencing angled at the top and that goes underground.

@@Oakleaf700 Oh, that's ok then. The point of the previous comment is the fox is a menacing and wholesale killer of poutry stock, not a fluffy bunny. We're neither interested in your auntie for God's sake, or the lecture.

@@maxwellfan55 Poultry keepers owe it to their charges to build proper coops. If you people are too idle or poor or feckless to do that, don't keep poultry. Pointless to bleat ''fox killed my chickens'' if you haven't bothered to be responsible for them.

@@Oakleaf700 I refer you (again) to the comment (Linda Ross) about the extreme and vicious predatory nature of foxes. Yes that simple. Try reading it. We know poultry owners have a responsibility towards their stock, so spare the highbrow lecture that detracts entirely from the point, shifts the blame to the poultry keeper, and once again fuels the illogic argument of fox protection and Disney style ethics. Foxes will also take numerous other stock including lambs, geese, ducks, piglets, even sheep, anything in their capability. And while we're at it, no I don't hunt, I care for animal welfare and I keep poultry, so please, no assumptions, I'm done with this.

R u a jehovas witness !?

alan roberts my grandfather worked for the Duke of Beaufort, and the whole estate was created for the benefit of hunting, so the countryside you see in this footage is because of hunting. All damage would be repaired as it is done today.

Yeah I guess we're better off eating Cheetos and playing video games and getting greasy indoors all day long

YOUR A nob

Whether you agree with (Fox hunting) or disagree, the truth of the matter is, Foxes wouldn't have been so numerous if it wasn't for hunting.The land has been shaped and designed with coverts planted for foxes and has benefited much of the countryside also. The Duke of Beaufort did more for hunting than any of the animal-rights organisations of animal -rights nutters have ever done. In fact the antis created a wonderful own goal due to everyman's hand againts foxes nowadays and especially using certain indiscriminate methods of control, i.e. Shooting, snaring, trapping and even the vileness of poisons. The true vandals of the countryside are the antis themselves.How wonderful they must feel!

The countryside as we know it was created by these vandals to enable hunting and shooting on their lands. We owe them a depth of gratitude.

@@kevinturner5857 It's really wrong, it's all about 'Fun' and not about fox control. Foxes don't need controlling, the populations stay pretty constant, if one is killed, more fill the void. Nature should be left well alone.
