On the 3rd November 2026 The Cottesmore Hunt rampaged through a graveyard in St Peter's Church, Knossington, shortly after they'd run amok through Knossington Therapeutic school, clearly on the line of a fox. This isn't the first time a hunt has allowed hounds to run, out of control, through a graveyard. The Warwickshire Hunt faced public backlash after their hounds ran through St James Church, Idlicote back in 2019. The huntsman was nowhere to be seen as hounds defecated near headstones, and of course no-one bothered to clean up after them. In February 2026 it was reported by the League Against Cruel Sports that The Middleton Hunt tore through Mowthorpe Garden of Rest within the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in North Yorkshire. Hunts have no respect for the living; with constant reports nationally of trespass, hounds running through private gardens and the general public being put at risk by their actions. They also have no respect for the dead; with hounds running through graveyards and defecating near headstones. Hunts will stop at nothing to terrorise and kill wildlife, regardless of who they affect and whose loved ones they disrespect.

Since the shocking incident on the 12th of October, whereby a stag being hunted by the Quantock Staghounds collided with a car on the A39, the hunt has continued to use this road as their own personal playground. The stag was flipped over the top of the car, and its leg smashed a rear window. The driver and her small child were not hurt but this could have been fatal to those on the road at this time. Read more about the incident at 👉huntsabs.org.uk/horror-as-fl… Since then, the Quantock Staghounds have continued to use this road to hunt stags, which they do by exploiting loopholes in the law. Illegal quads are filmed speeding up and down the road, those on foot are running in front of cars and hounds are spilling out onto the road causing traffic to brake. It is only a matter of time until a member of the public is seriously hurt due to the actions of the Quantock Staghounds. More must be done by police to protect the public, and the government must move quickly to ensure there is a full ban on hunting with hounds.
