Animal rights group call on Environment minister to discontinue Stag- hunt licensing,

Demonstration Wednesday 31st January, Time 12.45-2pm.

Department of Environment Custom House Dublin.1.

The AOHS are issuing a renewed call for the Ward Union’s hunting license to be revoked by the Minister Dick Roche.

‘ In the aftermath of this weeks serious safety risk to children, the terror and ultimate death of a hunted stag , the property damage and disruption of a small village due to stag hunting, we want stag hunting ended permanently now.’

Minister Roche is responsible for issuing the permit to the Ward Union to hunt stag, which really is an exemption to the Wildlife Act, granted to Ireland’s one and only Carted Stag Hunt Club.

Following the suspension of the Ward Union hunt Clubs activities after this week’s serious public safety incident. The general public, farmers, locals and ourselves are united in our demands to rid County Meath of this nefarious and worthless pursuit.

Stag-hunting consists of taking a tame Stag from the Hunt premises , transporting it to a hunt, chasing it with up to 80 riders, 50 hounds, quad bike riders and car followers for up to 3 , sometimes 4 hours. The animal hunted this week was bloodied, terrified and later died of its injuries and stress. Two horses were also cut and injured due to falling on the public road. Children could have been under the horse or indeed injured or killed by the fast reckless hunt that engaged in riding up public footpaths and destruction of fences and trespass. A village was held to ransom as happens every Tuesday and Friday Oct-March.

It’s a miracle no one was seriously hurt this week, if a child had been killed would another license be issued?
The hunt cannot control where the stag enters, the animal is running for his life, he crosses roads, walls, fields of sheep and major roads in his terror.
The stag is tame not wild as it is kept by the hunt for one purpose …fun. The animal is chased, terrorised, and man handled by 4-5 men at recapture.
‘Stag hunting serves no ecological or practical purpose but to provide entertainment two days every week to supposedly upper class arrogant thugs’
.Farmers againt the Staghunt.

WE WILL BE SUPPORTED BY FARMERS AGAINST FOXHUNTING.(FAF)
