It doesn't matter what time of the day or what the weather is like, sabs are dedicated to saving lives and evidencing the blatant illegal hunting still taking place twenty years after the Hunting Act.

Cub hunting takes place during the early morning or evening, when temperatures are lower and scenting conditions are better for hounds. The purpose of cub hunting is to train newer, younger hounds to kill foxes in preparation for the main season.

THERE IS NO SMOKESCREEN FOR CUB HUNTING!
Although pro-hunters will usually refer to it as 'autumn' hunting to try and make it sound less sadistic.

The Hunt Saboteurs Association has over 60 affiliated groups who are passionate and dedicated to exposing blood sports and saving lives. You can support hunt sabs by becoming a member of the HSA.

VWH out we are in pursuit

17/09/2026

Today is National Fox Day and we want to take this opportunity to thank each and every hunt sab that dedicates their time to saving their lives.

Foxes are inquisitive, intelligent, adaptable and beautiful animals that play a vital role in the ecological balance of our countryside. They deserve respect, kindness and peace and that is why the Hunt Saboteurs Association will keep fighting for their lives.

If you want to support the work that the HSA does then please see link in comments.

With reports from sabs of cub hunting now underway in some parts of the country and autumn stag hunting happening in the south-west, groups are preparing themselves for another full-on season of saving lives and exposing blood sports.

Good luck to all the sabs out there today and over the coming weeks!

Please put shallow bowls of water out for wildlife 🙏

Another unnecessary loss yesterday.
Huge thanks to​ the caring members of public who called Gloucestershire Badger Group who then contacted us. We attended but sadly she had passed.

She was this year's cub with no visible injuries, most likely dehydrated and unable to find food. This hot weather creates huge challenges for badgers whose main source of food is worms, as the dry hard ground makes foraging nearly impossible.

Gloucestershire Badger Group and Cotswold Hunt Sabs continue to feed and water local wildlife, with trail cameras monitoring setts at risk of interference.

​Please put out water to help local wildlife
you can save lives 🙏

​RIP beautiful girl

More killing of defenceless birds

**Please Don't Comment Before Reading the Post **- unless you're desperate to get back to your colouring
Its the Inglorious Twelfth today so lets hope this guy keeps his head down and the sabs are out in force to stop the knobheads out shooting them. With the moorland in a tinderbox state there's even less reason for pillocks to dress up in tweed and tramp around killing birds 🤬😡🤬
If you're out sabbing , good luck
(And yes I know its a pheasant, the di*****ds don't know the difference and will shoot anything that moves, and I haven't got a picture of a grouse 😂)

🦊 CUB HUNTING IS ABOUT TO START IN THE COTSWOLDS 🦊

​August marks the start of the despicable and illegal cubbing season. These criminals go out at dawn and dusk to train young inexperienced hounds in this barbaric practice.
The hunts will surround small woodlands and coverts where they know vulnerable innocent fox families live. They will likely have been feeding these families over the summer.
​Riders and foot followers surround the areas to flush young fox cubs back into the woods, preventing them from escaping. This year's new hounds are sent in with more experienced hounds and are encouraged to tear the trapped cubs apart to build up their taste for killing ready for the main hunting season.
Cubbing is beyond reprehensible, a secretive illegal practice of animal abuse. ​They operate under the cover of early morning or late evening to stay hidden dressed in their rat catcher (tweed)

You can help by
👉 Reporting sightings. If you see horseboxes, hound trailers, quad bikes or hunt activity early in the morning or late evening call or drop us a direct message immediately . Any details you share with us will remain strictly confidential.
👉We’ll be out in the field multiple times a week and fuel and vehicle maintenance is our biggest cost.
👉If you can spare a few pounds every penny goes directly to keeping us out in the fields.
Help us protect Cotswold wildlife this autumn! 🦊💚
