I guess it's a matter of whether you think it's morally acceptable to kill animals for pleasure. If society as a whole has decided that it is immoral, and made it illegal, then the fact that it's your land is neither here nor there.
What gets my goat is that the kind of people who moan about us townies not understanding the ways of the country are quite happy to pocket massive handouts in the form of agricultural subsidies. In fact, so massive that they get more subsidy than the whole of the rest of (UK) industry put together. |

I have no problem with fox hunting or hunting in general - as long as the animal is not endangered.

The oldest corporation in America is The West Jersey Proprietors. The General Board of Proprietors of the Eastern Division of New Jersey was dissolved in 1998. Even today, any unclaimed land has to be settled through the proprietors. East and West Jersey Proprietors - Archives Quaker West New Jersey: Democracy in 1677 Slightly off topic - but it demonstrates that New Jersey is still tied to it's colonial past. Quakers are still here. A meeting house in Princeton from the early 1700's is stil in use by Quakers. Fxo Hunting is still a tradition here, although it is much more limited.

[EDIT] It seems as if the dogs do kill the fox, but they do not rip it to shreds as Ruinel suggests. The dog bites the fox on the back of the neck, where it seems to die instantly.

How is this any different than dog fighting? How is this any different than killing an animal for your own pleasure on your own land? I just don't see it. |

This is a nice clean nip on the back of the neck to instantly and humanely kill the fox. |

Food for thought... if only one dog gives a clean, humane bite to the back of the fox's neck to quickly and painlessly sever the spinal cord and kill it, then why aren't the rest of the dogs muzzled to prevent the excited dogs from tearing at the fox?
