This stag was killed by the Tiverton Staghounds, on 27th October 2025.
The hunt met at Two Posts Cross, Pennymoor. The kill happened at Cadleigh after yet another long, agonising chase. Once dead, he was dragged by the antlers, trussed up and then hung from the back of a quadbike in a final indignity.
This hunt switched between various exemptions to suit to kill this stag, but it always ends up the same - a long and torturous chase which ends in these magnificent stags being carved up into trophies.
It’s time to end trail hunting and all the absurd exemptions which are utilised by hunts to cover illegal and barbaric hunting. With just 5 days left before the consultation closes - please give the government your views on this cruelty, ⬇️
