DIGGING OUT

The Campaign for the Abolition of Terrier Work (CATW) exposes the cruelty of digging out foxes and the injuries also inflicted on terriers. We are seeking legislation in the UK and Ireland outlawing the use of terriers to terrorise animals underground. Terrierwork is one of the cruellest so called 'sports' and should be illegal in any civilised society.

Some of our photos and videos graphically illustrate the horror of foxhunting and terrier work. These may cause distress.

The cruel reality of terrier work and BASC

Every day we troll through hundreds of posts on hunting forums collecting quotes for use later in our campaign against terrier work. It's quite a dispiriting experience as you feel your own IQ dropping to the level of a BNP supporter, luckily the regular bouts of infighting provide some amusement.

The quote below, barbaric as it is, is fairly typical of hundreds of similar posts by those 'law-abiding' sportsmen.

BASC - the reality of their code of practise

The fact that this is totally illegal doesn't seem to concern the site administrators.

You would expect the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC) to be more selective on which sites they advertise on but clearly they are not. You may remember BASC produced the terrier work 'Good Practice Guide' that was annexed to the Hunting Act. Cleary the terrier-men see the guide as just for public consumption and to be ignored in reality. Perhaps BASC do too, after all their condemnations of such killings are nowhere to be found unlike their advertisements.
