|  | | Devon Hunt Kills Two Hounds On Busy A30 | The Hunt Saboteurs Association has received reports of two foxhounds who were tragically hit and killed by cars today on the busy A30, near Okehampton, Devon. |  | Hound is stretchered into the vets in an attempt to save their life.
One of the hounds, who was discovered by members of the public whilst still alive, was found to have sustained a broken spine during a car collision. They were taken to a nearby vets for treatment but sadly had to be put to sleep due to the severity of their injuries. |  | Members of the public cared for this hound with a broken spine
A second hound was later found dead on the side of the road by Devon County Hunt Saboteurs, who were returning home from sabotaging the Stevenstone Hunt. Having been alerted to the incident via a local Facebook group, the sabs rushed over to see whether anything could be done to save the poor dog. |  | A second hound was found dead beside the A30
The hounds are believed to belong to the Mid Devon Hunt who were hunting foxes in the area at the time. The hunt met in the village of Belstone, less than a mile from where the two victims were found.
An HSA spokesperson commented:
“Hounds are as much victims of these cruel organisations as any other animal. Treated as mere tools by hunt staff, and deliberately put into exceedingly dangerous situations, RTAs involving foxhounds are sadly not uncommon. The fact that the hunt didn’t even go looking for any lost hounds speaks volumes.
It is clear that the Mid Devon were intentionally hunting foxes close to the busy A road and as a direct result two hounds lost their lives.”
