Hunting Ban

[FTVS]

As i understand it this is not just limited to Fox Hunting but "hunting with Dogs" I assume this then includes Hare Coursing? What other things?

I believe it will also include stag hunting, which is also done with dogs.

The ban does include hare coursing but not if the men with the dogs have a gun and shoot the hare as soon as they can, and they run no more than two dogs. The ban also means that if you are walking your dogs off leads and they happen to chase the wildlife unless you shoot the wildlife you are breaking the law, you have to prove you did not intend to chase them in the first place. You may however chase and kill rabbits and rats. For some reason it is fine to hunt these species. If you are shooting you may use dogs to flush out game but you are limited as to the amount of dogs you may use.
