I WOULD like to give my opinion on fox hunting. I think adults are setting a bad example to children.
I also think that the people who hunt are silly in saying that they will lose their jobs if fox hunting gets banned, because there is always drag hunting. Drag hunting involves putting down a scent which the hounds have to follow.
If a fox does need to be killed then an expert marksman is a better way to kill it because it is not such a slow and painful death.
One day I hope that instead of the hunters chasing and killing foxes and other wild animals, it will be the other way round!
