After 252 years of hunting wildlife, the Lanarkshire & Renfrewshire Foxhounds met for the final time on Saturday 4th March. This comes just weeks after hunt saboteurs broke the news that another hunt - The Fife Foxhounds - were to disband.
This seismic victory comes just a month after the Hunting with Dogs Scotland Bill was passed. Clearly the restrictions in place were not workable for the L&R hunt and as a result, the hunt have thrown in the towel.
We are ecstatic beyond belief to see the demise of the L&R as our group and our predecessors Clydeside Hunt Sabs worked tirelessly for years bringing this hunt to their knees. Thanks and recognition also go out to other Scottish Sab groups past and present, our friends over the years Edinburgh Hunt Sabs as well as Scottish Borders Hunt Saboteurs, Grampian Hunt Sabs and Perthshire Hunt Sabs, who’ve all stood next to us in the killing fields at one time or another.
Our group has sabbed every meet we possibly could over recent years saving the lives of countless foxes, stopping dig-outs and exposing the hunt at every opportunity for their cruel and sadistic pastime. We have dealt with everything the hunt could throw at us but we never once backed down.
We are hearing that more hunts in Scotland are to follow in the footsteps of both The Fife Foxhounds and The L&R. Watch this space for news.
A message to any hunts that remain in Scotland: Expect to see us soon. We will not stop until fox hunting in Scotland is consigned to the history books once and for all.
Long Run the Fox!
