Britain Outlaws Fox Hunting

From the article:

    Opponents of hunting with hounds say it is unacceptably cruel since the dogs kill foxes by tearing them apart. They also deride it as a mainly aristocratic pastime — Prince Charles and other royals are among the most prominent participants.

Ho hum.

In other news, Parliment has also declared it illegal for cats to tear apart mice, and for eagles to tear apart rabbits. Ditty Dopshot (MP, Oxford), announced that Parliment will also be investigating the legality of sharks tearing apart seals, robins tearing apart worms, and beavers tearing apart trees.

"These barbaric acts are an atrocity, and go against everything that is natural", said Dopshot.
