Blood sports have no place in modern Ireland. Using live hares as lures for greyhounds in coursing is unacceptable. So too is using a pack of hounds to chase and tear foxes to bits. A ban on coursing, fox hunting and all forms of hunting animals with packs of dogs is long overdue in Ireland.

A RED C opinion poll conducted in September 2019 found that a 77 per cent majority of Irish citizens want hare coursing and foxhunting banned.

Contact the leaders of Fianna Fail, Fine Gael and Sinn Fein and tell them to act to ban hare coursing, fox hunting and all bloodsports.
