Help Irish Foxes
The Irish Council Against Blood Sports is calling on the Minister for Agriculture, Brendan Smith, to outlaw the horrendous practices of digging out and terrierwork. We are urging all TDs and Senators to back a ban on these activities.

Urgent appeal to Google: "Stop advertising foxhunting"
Google has been urged by ICABS to stop advertising foxhunting in Ireland. The call comes in response to Google ads which encourage readers to "experience the thrill of the chase" and consider a "foxhunting break" in Ireland. A video showing the cruelty of foxhunting has been brought to the attention of the company's Dublin-based European HQ.
Please join our appeal to Google - respond to our action alert now.
ACTION ALERT
Ask Google to stop displaying ads for foxhunting. Use the sample letter below or compose your own original letter. Thank you.

Dear Mr Herlihy,
I am horrified to learn that "Ads by Google" include adverts for the cruel and barbaric activity of foxhunting. ["Fox hunting Ireland - Experience the thrill of the chase", "Fox hunting in Ireland Special offer hunting break", etc]
I call on your company to immediately remove such ads on the grounds that they promote one of Ireland's worst acts of animal cruelty.
In foxhunting across Ireland, foxes are disturbed from their habitats, chased to exhaustion and torn apart by packs of trained hounds. Foxes that manage to escape underground are dug out with spades while terriers are sent down to viciously attack them.
I invite you to view this short Irish Council Against Blood Sports campaign video which shows just some of the suffering involved: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x54...
I trust that after viewing this, Google will agree that foxhunting is disgusting animal cruelty. I hope, therefore, that you will act now to remove this ad and stop publicising foxhunting.
Thank you
Yours faithfully

I am quite sure that I heard the RTE 1 radio station mention coursing this morning.
I think it was mentioned as a sports results report.
I certainly found it a sickening thing to wake up to!
I hope you manage to stop this, if possible.

Wishing everyone who is against all types of animal cruelty a very very happy Christmas. Keep up all the great work in 2009 - the animals need us. To Richie who commented below - its spelt amount !!!!
For all those who are anti-bloodsports. Try to attend the anti-foxhunting protest on December 26th in Carrigaline or and the anti Hare-coursing in Blarney. Wishing you and your family and friends a very happy Christmas.
well hows things hows the campaign going
i voted no too!
the wolf is already extinct in this country because of human interference, there is no chance of ever reintroducing them because people have destroyed their habitat!
hi, i voted no, but the yes people are still ahead, ill advertise this on my page and others ok
175 people have joined the Ban Hare Coursing band.
I think that says it all really.
Phil. Try Lamping for a job.
There is nothing like setting a few snares in the morning going fox hunting through the day and finishing the day off with a bit of fox lamping,
conservation at its best.
Donna. I see the frustration of Anti-bloodsports people to pro bloodsports attitudes all the time. It has been the attitude of ICABS for years that it should follow that someone who cares about animals should care about his/her fellow man Educating rather than suggesting shooting is not the answer. Some you cant educate but shooting anything is not what ICABS is about. . Lol. I know you didnt literally mean it.
