Data from the League Against Cruel Sports reveals that during the most recent fox hunting and preceding cub hunting seasons, which concluded in March, a total of 488 foxes were observed being chased nationwide. Alarmingly, over half of these incidents—234 in total—occurred in the West Country, with Gloucestershire alone accounting for 75 of the reported incidents.
