This is a rare opportunity to push for real change: not tweaks, not loopholes, but a clear, enforceable ban on hunting with hounds. We’ve reviewed the consultation in detail and set out how we recommend supporters respond. Click on the button below and send your personal response directly to Defra in under 30 seconds. Respond to Defra Trail hunting is a practice widely used as a cover for illegal fox hunting and the killing of other mammals. It’s been more than two decades since the Hunting Act came into force, and the majority of hunts have largely ignored the law, continuing to hunt wildlife as before. On the rare occasions police have investigated, hunts have claimed to be following a pre-laid scent trail, known as trail hunting, and that any kills were purely accidental. Labour has promised to finally close the loopholes that allow trail hunting to mask as a legal sport. This is the party’s chance to consign the hunting of wildlife to the history books. The hunting lobby will undoubtedly be doing everything in its power to influence Labour and carve out loopholes, allowing them to terrorise and kill wildlife with impunity. So we need to make our voices loudly heard for the animals that can't speak for themselves. Fill in the government consultation now. Every response counts.
