Cattistock Hunt kill fox at Melbury House 26/8/25

The kill happened close to Melbury House, home of one of Britain’s richest women Lady Charlotte Townsend, a former Master of the hunt. The fox was chased into a dense patch of vegetation with hounds quickly surrounding it. Although the hounds are struggling to get into the covert, the terrified fox bolts out and is killed. Hunt staff can be seen around the covert on foot and a quad is present so it’s possible a terrier was entered to push out the fox, likely a cub who would lack the experience to sit tight inside. 3 hunt members are seen running in to the kill, but don’t seem in any hurry to retrieve the body, probably relishing watching the dogs tear into the carcass. We’d hoped the presence of the drone would make them call off the hounds. However, they were either too arrogant to care or couldn’t hear it over the racket they were surely making.
